[quote=Anonymous]Yes and no. We pull from our families and our own heritage so the names would "go" from that perspective, but I strongly dislike when the names seem planned to "match" - like all the first names start with J or something. I think about what it will be like to shout both names on the playground so that it's not an accidental tongue twister. But kids aren't a matched set and won't have their names said side-by-side for more than a quarter of their life, so I think people get a bit too hung up on this aspect of naming. Aside from the intentional alliteration, I think the focus on "does it go with Larla" is mostly just people trying to narrow down choices and looking for any reason to cut names off the list.[/quote]
