[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for the feedback so far!

Meredith was on one of my lists but vetoed by my DH because he claims he's never heard it before (??? sometimes I think he's an alien) and it sounds to his ear like "Merry-Death." We both get full veto power so it's out, and also now I'll never see that name without thinking Merry-Death, I guess. Thanks, DH.  :roll:

I do like Megan, though! I will test it out with him. Do people have spelling/pronunciation thoughts on that one? Meghan? Megan? Meagan?

Also, wildcard, but the name Megan made me think of Brooke, which I like. Thoughts on that?[/quote]

At first, I thought we just had different taste bc the only name I like from your list is Molly. I actually love Molly and have no issue with the “it’s a nickname” idea, I am a person who feels strongly about nn names bc I hate my full name and have used my nn my whole life, wish it was just my name.

But then Megan is another of my favorites. I also love Morgan. I have a Reagan (rhymes with Megan) and wish I had used one of these two instead. I am a big fan of the Megan spelling and common pronunciation.

I like Brooke fine. Love Brynn if that falls in line for you.[/quote]

Reagan rhymes with Megan? What?

Reagan=ray-gan whereas Megan=Meg (short e sound, not mayg)-an [/quote]

I was guessing Ree-gun and Mee-gun. [/quote]

I have a pretty standard American accent (no one says I have an accent) and Reagan and Megan rhyme to me. Ray-gan May-gan[/quote]

I have never heard anyone say May-gan. I grew up in the south and have also lived in the Midwest and Pacific Northwest. Known lots of Megans. It has always been pronounced Meg (rhymes with peg) Anne.[/quote]
