[quote=Anonymous]It didn't really matter to me. Both kids were named for certain people and the names I think go OK with each other. I read an essay years ago on baby naming and the one thing I always remembered was 1) Avoid rhyming names because when you yell for one kid the other shows up (Dan and Ann). But also 2) Don't give kids names that are not quite rhyming but could. She referenced twins in the neighborhood named Dirk and Eric. She said adults would often call them Derek and Eric while the other kids called them Dirk and Erk LOL One weird thing with my kids' name and my sisters' kids is that our 1st kids both have 2-syllable "J" names and our 2nd kids both have 2-syllable "E" names. They are also all very close in age. Never even thought of it when we were in the baby stage but it is pretty funny now. [/quote]
