Boys Names Starting with The Same Letter as Surname?

Hi all!
I've just found out Im going to be having a boy this time! I love names that start with C but our surname begins with C too. DH thinks its "overkill" to have two C's - what do you think? I love Callum, Christopher and Kevin (ok not a C but near enough!!!!!!).

I quite like illiteration in names. However, I seem to be in a minority. I like the name Rosa if this baby is a girl, but our last name starts with R so DH says NO WAY .

I think this is fine - can sound quite strong (in a good way) imo. But perhaps throw in a middle name with a different letter too!

My real name has the same sound at the start! I like it...makes you sound interesting.

No! Kevin is awful (imho)!!!!

Also think Dylan Douglas, Rocco Ritchie (and there is another one but cannot remember it!)

Dont like it myself.
