Aidan Michael A...

I often get a second look because I am Andrea Andrews (I'm putting it out there because it is hard to get an opinion otherwise)...

Is Aidan Michael Andrews a mean thing to do?  Aidan Andrews??

    I don't think it's bad.  It flows nicely, IMO.  It's not like you're naming him Andrew Andrews.

    Aidan Andrews is fine. Your first and last names have the same first five letters - totally different deal IMO.

    I don't think it's mean necessarily, but I think you could do much better. Aidan is boring, and paired with an "A" last name, I just don't think it's the best choice out there.

    Ditto.  It's kind of a snoozer name.  If you're not totally attached to Aidan, keep looking.  Someone here did the math, and there were 90,000+ -aden boys born last year. Enough already.

    I really like the name Aidan.  And Aidan Andrews sounds fine.   The one thing that the name "Aidan" get spelled incorrectly--normally, they spell it "Aiden", and they do not ask if it is spelled correctly.  As well, there is a "Hayden" baby girl in our daycare, so if my baby boy Aidan and baby girl Hayden are sitting close together and someone calls out one of their names-they may both look.  It is important to just name your child a name that you love.

    I think the aliteration is fine, and thank you so much for spelling it Aidan!

    I'm so ridiculously sick of the name Aidan. And it doesn't flow all that well with Andrews IMO.
