Lynsan?

crazylucky · May 2009

I know it's not technically a real name, but what do you think of it for a girl? I'd never use it as a first name - middle only. I've been trying to think of a way to put together my mother and DH's mother's names (Lynette and Susan) but I hate made-up sounding names.

Thoughts?

TIA

What about Suzette as a Susan/Lynette combination?

I was going to say exactly this!

i personally, think it's a stretch.
Let me say that sometimes, although you want to "use" certain names, they just don't work (esp in combo).

I thought about Suzette, but I don't really love that name.

Although the more I think about it, the more Lynsan is sounding like some kind of a prescription drug...

I think either Suzette, or both middle names, or Susannah Lynette. It does sound made up, and possibly a fungus or a prescription drug.

I think it's a good concept (honoring your mothers' names), but Lynsan just doesn't sound right to me.

It reminds me of linseed oil. I don't like it.

Yeah some names just aren't meant to be put together like that.

crazylucky · May 2009

Yeah I didn't really think so either. We'll see what happens, maybe I won't use the name(s) at all.

Thanks for the input!

I'd go with Suzette - I think that is a good name. Much better than the obviously made up Lynsan.

yikes. my first thought is that's not a name. but you admit that. i guess you could pull it off as a middle name... but eek. why would you want to?!? it's awful.

Susette/Suzette is a much better idea.

I read it as Lysol... What about Suzette?

Then you should hate Lynsan. It definitely doesn't sound like a real name.

Ew.

Looks like Lyn-san, as in Mr/Mrs Lyn in Japanese. Very awful.

It sounds like a topical ointment to me. I don't care for it at all.
