I have a last name ending in -and. Is Holl@nd useable? I love Holl@nd and the nn H0lly.
But nervous about the last name.
It would depend on the last name I think. Something like [name_u]Holland[/name_u] [name_m]Rand[/name_m] would be okay, if not ideal, but something like [name_u]Holland[/name_u] Cartland would be too singsongy for me. If [name_u]Holland[/name_u] doesn’t work, you could just name her [name_f]Holly[/name_f], which is lovely too.
@bonfireazalea thanks. Yeah doesn’t end with -land. I know [name_f]Holly[/name_f] is beautiful but I don’t like nn sounding names as full names. Personal preference
[name_u]Holland[/name_u] is so pretty but I can’t seem to picture an ‘-and’ last name that it sounds good with. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you like [name_u]Hollis[/name_u]?
Without knowing the full last name it’s hard to say, but my instinct is that it would probably be fine. If you’re worried about it what about [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] nn [name_f]Holly[/name_f]? I think both [name_u]Holland[/name_u] and [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] are great!
