Is this boys name usable with my surname ?

[JunebabyT]

I really like the name Elliot as our boys name but our surname starts and ends with T (something similar to Turrett).

Is Elliot Turrett OK or are there just too many Ts?

Thanks

Ooooo no sorry dosnt sound right 🙁

I think it sounds fine

You'll get lazy pronunciation - EllioTurrett. If they makes sense.

Correctly pronounced, it is too many Ts together. Elliot-Turrett is very harsh on the teeth.

Personally I don't like it. He may think it's fine.

Bit hard to say with the T - T sound imo

A bit of T overdose I'm afraid.

Sounds fine in my accent (Scottish)

No from me. Ely?

it's rare that a first and last name are said out loud together. Elliot is a lovely name ;). double t's are not a challenge to me (Canadian)

No, they will get run in together.

You could use it as a middle name, though, as it's very rare that you need to say your full name out loud

I say my first and second name together frequently, every time I introduce myself at work for example. Too many 't's for me I'm afraid OP.

Thanks all, I thought as much!

People will think you are a massive fan of ET as that will be the initials and the kid in the film is called Elliott.

I like it and sounds fine to me, I doubt his peers will link it to ET, the film is ancient and will be even more ancient by the time he's at school.

If your real surname is what I think it might be then Elliott could just about go with it. Does not go well with Turrett as this combination is challenging & does not roll off the tongue well.
