[quote=Anonymous][quote=fosfam]Is this just always a bad idea? We're liking the name Parker Foster, but not sure if that's too "cutesy" or "rhymey." Thoughts?[/quote] My DS has an -er / -er name. I was worried about it initially but now it doesn't even occur to me. Thinking about it now, I'd say that you don't notice the repeated sound that much because both the vowel sounds in the first syllable and the consonants before the -er are different from one another. I think you've got the same thing going on -- a hard k sound (I believe it's termed a plosive) in Parker and a soft st (sibilant?) sound in Foster (though maybe the t- is plosive there too, it still sounds softer to me), and the a/o sounds are also different.[/quote]
