S S E K

K = Surname so at the end.

We like all three name e.g. S S and E**.either can be a first name and two are family names. As said K is the initial of our surname.

So

SSEK
ESSK
SESK

Which initial version one works best/worst?

I really don't think it matters. Choose whichever way round you prefer

Ultratired · 01/10/2017 21:24

I prefer the names in the order of
S S E K

Worried that SS has negative connotations. Is this mad or a possibility?

Sorry any other views on this slightly mundane -inane- topic? Thanks

I highly doubt SS would be an issue, it wouldn't even occur to me.

I think that you're definitely overthinking the SS thing. I think any arrangement of those initials is fine so just go with the order of names you prefer

strawberrypenguin · 02/10/2017 09:56

All fine so whichever order you prefer!

Thank you Smile I suspected I am overthinking this prone to overthinking if anyone knows how to stop that too please share

Glad the SSEK is ok. One more paranoid question, could it at all be misconstrued as looking like S. E. X. in this day and age of text talk etc. Blush.

I have literally never seen anybody use all of their initials together like that in any context. When would anybody be thinking of or referring to her as SSEK? She'd always be eg Sarah King or Sarah SE King, never SSEK so no I don't think the "sex" thing could come up.

Thanks Monkey Blush

I just googled SSEK and stumbled upon a big shot Indonesian legal consultants agency and a Jewellery blog which looks very nice.

Not sure it's an issue. My dad's initials spelt out ARSE 😂

Lol my sister was born at the height of the Cold War & her initials are KGB Grin she's convinced this is why she always gets stopped at airport security!

I worked for a guy called Barry Mycock once, middle name John, no idea if his parents looked at the initials and realised his cheques would say B J Mycock Grin

Honestly don't think SSEK is an issue though Wink
