If by goer you mean get rid of it I vote no. I think you should use [name_m]Lewis[/name_m] if you really love it. Some alliterative names actually sound really good.

I personally love alliterative names. I think they’re strong and memorable.

I like alliterative names. I would prefer [name_m]Louis[/name_m] (prn louie) in your case since there is a prominent S sound in your last name as well as in [name_m]Lewis[/name_m]. Too much S in a name can make it hissy.

I thought goer meant it’s a go as opposed to no-go, so I voted yes.
