Would these initials bother you?

DS2 is due any day and we can't agree on a name. Both keen on Leo Alexander but that would give the wee man the initials 'LAP', which DH thinks will result in teasing. DS1 is Oscar, initials OSP. Can't have any MNs that end in 'Y' as our last name does, too.

Other options:
Leo Maximillion (initials LMP - makes me think of Last Menstrual Period!!)
Milo Alexander (MAP)
Leo Alastair (same problem as above!)
Leo Benjamin (DH not very keen on Benjamin)

I'm full term now so any input appreciated!

OP posts:

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Leo Alexander is lovely. I really don't think LAP are bad initials at all and not really much to tease about. And I'm a teacher who has heard and seen more teasing than most. Honestly don't think you should worry about it. MAP is more tease worthy but it's not rude or anything!!

That would bother me, too, but then I have a tendency to over think things when it comes to names. How about 'Leo Dominic'?

I really don't think anyone that your son grows up with would get the connection between LMP and last menstrual blood. Seriously. Would never have occurred to me.

I kind of agree re LAP. What about Milo Maxmilian together - MMP.
