First name-Surname Alliteration: Totally Tacky or Marvellously Memorable?

First choice for our daughter is now alliterative with surname... I think it sounds pretty cool, but am I making a rookie error?

I used to have an alliterative name (before marriage). I loved it and I miss it.

yeah, really does depend. funnily enough, a really traditional form here in scotland is more than simply alliterative, it's re-iterative: robert robertson; james jameson, andrew mcandrew are all guys i know. and that's not at all unusual .

I little names that use alliteration, makes them more memorable and just sounds like they are meant to go together.
