Alliteration FN and LN

My DH and I have been throwing around some names just for fun. We both actually agreed on the name Hazel, something that rarely happens. Only thing is that our last name starts with H as well. It's two syllables and begins with Hus. I know I'm thinking too much into it at this point in time, but I thought I would get some opinions first before I add it to my imaginary name list in my head.

I had a couple of G names on my initial list, but quickly axed them once I said them with our G last name. And that was with a hard and soft G sound. Even still, I just can't do it.  I don't even know why exactly, just sounds silly or something.

That's how I feel as well. I keep trying to picture a teacher saying it out loud during roll call and it just feels kinda silly. Can't put my finger on it though exactly.

I personally loved names that start with the same initial as last name.

I agree.  As long as it's not "Carl Carlson" or "Dave Davis" etc.

Without knowing your last name, I don't think that Hazel Hus--- sounds bad.

This exactly.. I know you shouldn't use your whole name on here but as you can see by my account name I am Alyssa Ames and it seems just fine to me. I also had a childhood friend named Cory Cravete (not entirely his real name). So I think sometime it works.

I don't think it should be a deal breaker.

I just find something odd about it. There are several F names I was sad to cross off but I just couldn't look past it.

I could have written this word for word, except our ln starts with hos. I would go for it, l think we will consider it if we ever have a girl.

I have no problems with alliteration and it can sound really pretty! I wouldn't let it hold you back if you love the name!

I don't think Hazel Hus- sounds bad or weird at all.

Same! Plus, you could always break it up with a mn

I think it has more to do with "flow" than anything. My last names starts with S and there are some S names that I think sound fine and some that I find two matchy-matchy.

My name was Aubrey Ann Arn--- before I got married.  It never bothered me and I always got a lot of comments and compliments on it. If you love the name I wouldn't let that stop you.  I got called A or triple A all the time.

Hazel isn't a cutesy name, so I don't think the alliteration would be too much. Alliteration can be lovely.
