Do Daniel and Samuel rhyme?

[dowotmakesuhappy]

Do they rhyme in your accent?

Yes - Dan - yul and Sam-yul (south east)

Yes - I'm Scottish and would say Dan-yul and Sam-yul

Not quite, but close enough to sound a bit daft for brothers.

Yes in my accent

Nope

Well I would have said no, but having two children named those names I have experienced a lot of times when I have called one and another has appeared. I’m welsh.

No.

No because in English the rhyme is from the stressed syllable onwards. The stress is on the a so the n/m stop them rhyming.

No. Irish.

Not quite.
They are both really nice names. I've known twins called this and I thought at the time, not sure I'd have used those two names together.

Yes. I'm from the southeast and pronounce them as Dan-yul and Sam-yul.

No because in English the rhyme is from the stressed syllable onwards. The stress is on the a so the n/m stop them rhyming.

This. But if you're asking about the iel/uel sound at the end as I suspect you are, then yes they sound the same to me.

I have a child with one of those names, when I rang my grandad (hard of hearing) he heard the other one and still finds it hard to remember the right one now, 20 months later...

No they have assonance

Daniel = dan-iel (with 2 syllables and the i falling almost entirely into the el)

Samuel = sam-u-el (3 distinct syllables)

These are the names of ed milliband’s sons. I was surprised because they pretty much rhyme to me, and Sam and Dan (which they will almost certainly shorten to at some stage) even more so.
I know (adult) siblings Toby and Zoe and they say when they were children their names sounded pretty much the same (oh-ee) when shouted upstairs by an adult looking for someone to do the washing up, so they always had an excuse not to respond (“oh, I thought you said Toby”, and vice versa).

half rhyme

I don't think I've ever heard anyone in real life say Daniel with only two syllables.

I Don't think I've ever heard anybody in real life say Daniel with 3 syllables, it's always Dan-yul or Dan-yell. So I guess it's regional.

Come to West Yorkshire Monkey

Yes they do

No because that would make it Dan-you-el.

Nope, here we say Dan-ie-l. You know, like it's spelled?

I'm a Dan-yool and Sam-yool too.

I'm a Londoner though. Where I live in Yorkshire it is Dan-I-el
