I think the rhyme with the first syllable of the surname works quite well, actually - flows off the tongue nicely IMO.

It sounds like a packet of cigarettes. Wren is a daft name anyway.

I think it's awful, sorry. The rhyming bit that is, not necessarily the name itself.

Oh. Wren Benson I think it sounds good.
I mean if your last name was Benn I would not advise you to use the name but the "son" at the end just gives it that edge and appeal

Consuleo do you think the association comes from benson and hedges? I can't do much about the surname, and I obviously don't think Wren is a 'daft' name, but thanks anyway.

Thanks everyone else, it seems people have very different opinions! I just can't decide whether I think it flows nicely or sounds wrong...

I don't think it flows I'm afraid. ..

I think it flows well. Wren isn't a name I would choose but I don't think it's daft or anything.

It's better than Jenson Benson, but I don't like Wren as a name (I realise that's not what you asked us)

Oh and if I met a Wren Benson I don't think I'd really notice the slight rhyme.

It doesn't rhyme but I'm not sure it flow either

I think it works well, and I love the name Wren. But... you'll be hearing this name a lot, so if it irritates you now, I'd proceed with caution!

I like Wren and the rhyming doesn't bother me but I don't think it flows very well. But not awful so if you really like it why not?!

I think it works. It's memorable and yes, I wish Wren worked as well with my surname

My next door neighbour has a Jennifer Jenkins...I like it and Wren Benson.

No you can't do much about the surname but you can do something about the first name

This name combo sounds fine, I actually like it and Wren is lovely. People tend to overthink on babynames threads more than in real life. I've known a Gwillam Gwillam, and a Luke Lucas - both far sillier than Wren Benson and people tend to just think it's cool. Choose a 2 syllable surname to break it up. Eg. Wren Marie Benson - perfect!

2 syllable middle name I meant!!

Nice

I like Wren

I like Wren, but don't think it works well with the surname

Sorry, it doesn't work. I posted a similar question on here last year when naming my little girl (far more ridiculous than your suggestion btw) and was told it was a no. I was do grateful for those views- my pregnancy addled brain just really wanted the name but it was terrible with my surname. I am so so glad I didn't do it. Much as you want up convince yourself it works, the fact that you're on here asking tells me you know deep down it doesn't!!

Oh yes like Benson and Hedges. I briefly worked in a supermarket as a student and people would come in and ask for "Ten Benson, please."

I think if I met a Wren Benson I'd be tempted to spoonerise it and call her Ben Wrenson because that is an annoying habit I have. Sorry.

Wren is a lovely name. Really unique, nice choice. I think it goes nice with the name.
