Initials OAP

Would the initials OAP put you off naming your child the first and second names you really love?
Obviously not a lot can be done about the last initial as our surname starts with a P.
We think that it’s not an ideal combination of initials but that it’s not so awful to the point of us not being able to go with our first choice.
Just wondered if anyone has any views on this?
It would be for a girl if that makes a difference.

It's not bad but I'd be tempted to add a second middle name. Some people sign work documents with full initials. It shouldn't matter though.

It makes no difference. OAP isn’t exactly offensive

No one really cares about initials. The amount of time someone writes their full name is minimal.
