[quote=Anonymous]My thinking is: if you're only planning to call them one name at a time, the "it sounds better in this order" thing is NOWHERE NEAR as big a deal in real life as it is when you're doing name-picking exercises while pregnant. It will almost never be said, in either direction, so it doesn't really matter. Put the name you're going to use first and be done with it. You might think Jennifer Lynn sounds better than Lynn Jennifer, but if you're going to call her Lynn either way it doesn't matter. In middle school she'll say "my middle name is Jennifer, after my grandma" and one of her friends will say "that was my grandma's name too!" and they'll move on. It won't be weird that her middle name doesn't "flow" because no one will say it.[/quote]
