First name clashing with last name

[mummytobemaybe]

I love the name Oscar
Surname starts with Os as well
Is that too matchy or could it work?

Depends. Could sound fantastic.

But it will give the initials OO. A lifetime of 'Oooooh!'

Middle name Xavier please

Does your partner/husband have a different surname? Maybe consider using his instead? (Or yours instead if the O name is his)

Stink pickle- that is his surname

Yes to Xavier as a midle name

Just use yours then if it flows better.

No, it doesn't work as the R at the end of Oscar will get carried over to the O of the surname, and it will all sound like one word.

What like Oscar Osman? Sounds fine to me.

But it will give the initials OO. A lifetime of 'Oooooh!

I know someone with initials OO. She's only about 10 but I've never heard of anyone teasing her about it. Until I read your comment I'd actually thought more about the fact that those initials also stand for olive oil than the "ooh" factor.

Oscar Oswald would be an awesome name

I like alliteration, personally. Think it makes a name strong and memorable.

My DS's name is an aliteration..He was delighted when he discovered this.

My DH and I are going for an alliteration name (FF) - we love the name, and sounds cool!

Oh, nothing wrong with alliteration in my book.
It's the end of the first name and start of the surname that's more important. In this case they are going to collide, and the surname will sound like it begins with R.

OscaRosman

You could put in another name and use it. Oscar Joe, Oscar John, Oscar Sam etc. It breaks the sounds up.

It's not just alliteration the name starts with 'Os' and the surname starts with 'Os'

Yeah, it's like Louis and Hughes or William Williams that sound a bit silly.

I also know a few kids called Josh Jones which I think sounds a bit daft.

I think alliterative names can be brilliant , but can also be ^painfully awkward. Try sounding it out and see how you feel, maybe ask a few trusted friends for their opinion?

So why not use your surname instead? As the mother of her child, equal parent and one who is growing and delivering him?

I think something like Oscar Osborne sounds great, OP!

I like alliteration generally. As PP said, it's memorable.

I think it works. Go for it.

I think it sounds great, go for it!
