Oscar? Jethro?

We like both of these names.  but does Oscar Miller sound too much like Oscar Meyer???

And what do people think of Jethro? My son's name is Moses, and they are related biblically (but I only knew that because I looked up info on the name Jethro, so I don't know how obvious an association it will be for people?)

help!

    Oscar! Oscar! Love Oscar, Jethro is NMS. I think Oscar Miller sounds fine.

    I like Oscar but not with Miller. If Miller is a mn it miiiight be alright? Otherwise I definitely think of Oscar Mayer. I don't like Jethro.

    No periods due to 17 years of ballet and distance running after college.  Zero response to 2 months of Clomid, little response to Letrozole.  IUI left with 9 cysts = too many viable eggs due to age.  On to IVF.  Low dose of all meds still produced 37 mature eggs 12.6.11.  Froze due to overstimulation.  

    FET #1.1 1.22.12 BFN.   FET #1.2 2.22.12=GRACE! (and a vanishing twin).  

    Grace Katherine born 10.25.12 @ 36w6w 6#14oz 19.5".
    FET #1.3 3.2013 BFN FET#1.4 4.2013 BFN. Never tried a fresh transfer.  Let's try, despite 10 still frozen.  
    ER 6.26.13 27 mature eggs, slight overstim. ET   7.1.13 ectopic, FET 2.1  9.10.14   TRIPLETS!!

    I love Oscar, but don't think it works with Miller. In addition to the Oscar Mayer similarity, I also think the fact that both names are 2 syllable ending with an "er" sound makes it a little sing-songy.

    Personally I don't like Jethro, but I don't take issue with it, and I don't think most people would get the Moses connection.
