Middle name rhyming with last name?

jolynn326

For hypothetical DD#2, we like Celia Kay (many of you voted on middle names for me last week - thank you!). The problem is that 'Kay' rhymes with our last name.

Would Celia Kay James be out of the question? Especially if 'Kay' is quite significant?

James is not exactly our last name, but it is very close.

Considering people are rarely called by their first, middle and last name I don't see any of it a problem.

Agreed. Also eventually she might marry and take her husbands last name so I wouldn't worry too much.

I think it is fine.

I don't think that would be a problem, first and last names rhyming I think is a little weird, but i think the middle name is fine.

God, I hate this line of thinking. It's so patriarchal. Women's names don't matter!

Anyway, yes, I think it's odd. I'm sure there a ton of middle names that don't rhyme with your last name.

I wouldn't do a rhyming middle name...it will be too sing-songy.

...She never said anything about women's names not mattering, she said that she might marry and take her husband's last name. MIGHT.

Also, the baby's current last name (most likely) isn't even a "woman's" last name, it's her father's so...

To me that doesn't exactly rhyme. It has the same vowel sound but I think that's fine.

Give me a break. I said there's a chance that might not always be her name...

The point is that if it was a boy, NO ONE would say, "well, he might change his name when he's older, anyway." Because boys aren't taught to think that way. They are taught to identify with their names. Girls aren't.

And once they give the last name to the baby, it's HER name. It's not on loan from anyone. It's like saying she's the property of her parents or her husband. No, it's her name. More anti-feminist BS.
