my fav is the 2nd 3rd and last
i kinda want to break up elayna mackenzie keys cuz i dont want it to seem like she has 2 last names or hyphenated so i was thinking a short 2 MN
my son is elliott walter charles keys so 2 mn would be keeping with a lil tradition

Is it weird that the last one makes me think of Martha Marcy May Marlene?


Sorry, none of them sound great, to me. Equally bland.

i dont want just a filler name and DH gma mn was marie and i ave always loved mackenzie but he says no for a FN so we decided on elayna for a fn and mackenzie for a mn but i want a short 2nd mn

What language is the first name? How do you pronounce it?

Melody or Rosemary.

It's a misspelling of Elena.

I wonder if children whos parents misspelled names are at a disadvantage when they get older because the person looking at the name automatically assumes the person come from a dumb family? I know they typically through out names that are horibbly misspelled when looking at job applications.

I majored in HR and honestly? HR people DO tend to avoid calling people back whose names look over the top ridiculous to try to spell or pronounce. It's not even their idea, sometimes - there are people who I have talked to who were INSTRUCTED to not both with people whose names are difficult.

This is especially true if they are hiring for a position that deals directly with the public. Yeah, it's not fair - but when it comes down to it, people are more likely to approach you if they can pronounce and understand what your name is.
