[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We didn’t think about similar sounding names when naming our kids, but did aim for names that were not top 50. One of our sons’ names ends in -on, which we’ve discovered is a really popular trend (Carson, Hudson, Landon, Jackson, etc.). DH wishes we’d picked a different name, but honestly, I’m not bothered. There still aren’t too many -on names in his class. DD, however, has 6 girls in her class whose names rhyme/end in -a (Isla, Lyla, Kyra). I do think one be annoyed if DD was one of them! [/quote] The irony of all the girls with two syllable names ending in -a is that all their moms have two or three syllable names ending in -y or -ie and thinking they were doing something fresh. So Kelly and Stephanie and Katie and Jenny all have girls named Lyla and Thea and Eva and Mia. And those girls will all do something else different, maybe names that end in an -een or -ine like Justine and Colleen and Maxine.[/quote]
