We are looking for a name if [name]Zane[/name]'s little sibling is a boy. Obviously, we like short, strong names and I like that they both have a “z.” However, our last name is “Stiebel,” pronounced “stee-bull.”
What do you hear when you hear [name]Cruz[/name] Stiebel?
“crucible” just jumps out at me? Is it enough to find a different name?
The z in [name]Cruz[/name] and the S in Stiebel run into each other unfortunately. Yes, now that you mentioned it I see crucible.
I think another name is in order.
eg
[name]Hunter[/name]
[name]Reid[/name]
[name]Max[/name]
Agree with PP that [name]Cruz[/name] is tough with your LN.
[name]How[/name] about:
[name]Ezra[/name]
[name]Xavier[/name]
[name]Xander[/name]
[name]Kai[/name] (or Zekkai to get the ‘Z’ in, but call him [name]Kai[/name], since you prefer shorter names?)
[name]Cade[/name]
[name]Enzo[/name]/[name]Kenzo[/name]
just a few thoughts… good luck!
cruz is NOT good with your last name.
Thanks for the replies; I figured this name would not work, but was hoping I was just being hypersensitive! We have a few months to figure it out. Thanks for the suggestions.
What about [name]Zeke[/name]? It’s normally short for [name]Ezekiel[/name], but it’s a pretty good name on its own too.
I like the suggestion of [name]Ezra[/name]. I agree that [name]Cruz[/name], unfortunately, doesn’t work well with your last name.
