I’m going in circles and returning here over and over again. I also sort of asked this a couple of months ago - sorry, didn’t quite get clarity.

Max Marshall - yes or no?

Feel free to give one word answers - I realise the alliteration is either loved or hated! I’m going to tot up the votes because I just cannot decide.

It’s perfect. I love alliteration, all the superheroes have them!

ds2 has an alliterative name with first, middle and surname all beginning with the same letter.

Yes tricky balance between cool and a bit too much! But it can work so well :)

I think some alliterative names work better than others - I really like L ones (eg Lauren Laverne) but we considered a T name for DC to go with our T surname and decided that was too much/too emphatic. I think M is a softer sound so I vote yes.
