What do you think of names ending in hard K sound with last name Krueger — like Nick, Jack, Luke, Jake, Blake, etc. I’m worried there’s too much K sound happening but I really like some of these short names and not their longer versions.

Question

Answer

Try yelling it into the backyard. That's one of our name tests. Full name, top of lungs, like they are in trouble.

Answer

My last name starts with S, we plan to avoid first names that end in S (like Dennis for example) to avoid run-on

Answer

I think it's a little awkward but not terrible. Except Luke... that one's especially hard to say, since it also has the u sound in common, and since Lou is also a name. Luke Krueger / Lou Krueger. Too confusing, in my opinion. Jake has a bit of that second problem too, since Jay can be a name.

Answer

My first name ends with and maiden name begins with the same sound. It was awful. Every time I had to say my name, I had to pause between the first and last to make sure they were separated.

Answer

Maybe use a longer name. Instead of Nick, use Nicholas and use Nick as a nickname. Or just use a second name with another ending, that’s what my Mom did with my brother.
