McCoy

My husband and I really like the name McCoy. Our last name is McKinney. Is the Mc-Mc sound too much or does McCoy McKinney sound like a strong, unique name? Middle name would be [name_m]William[/name_m], which is a family name. Thanks!

It’s a little bit too much of a Mc for me. I’m sorry

Yeah, as much as I live McCoy as a first name, it doesn’t go well with a Mc-surname. Have you considered just using [name_m]Coy[/name_m]? I think that would be fine with McKinney.

I’m sorry but it’s a little much!

Yes, I thought of that. We just don’t like [name_m]Coy[/name_m] near as much as McCoy and any other possible names on our list. 4 weeks from due date and I’m just wanting names decided! Sex is unknown so we need 2 names.

Unfortunately, I do think it’s too much.

I’d agree McCoy McKinney is a bit much. If it was [name_m]Mac[/name_m]-something [name_m]Mick[/name_m]-Kinney, it would work better. Maybe [name_m]Macsen[/name_m]/Macklin etc would work for you

Personally don’t like the similar spelling :confused: I don’t think it should be considered given the room for bullying! I do like [name_m]Colt[/name_m] McKinney as an alternative and also [name_m]Dalton[/name_m] McKinney! [name_u]Michael[/name_u] [name_m]Coy[/name_m] McKinney is a cute combo and nickname could be McCoy which I love

If you decide to go with something else, perhaps one of these would work . . .

It’s definitely distinctive and it makes me smile but it might be a little too much. I like [name_m]Malachi[/name_m]/Malakai McKinney!

I do know someone with two Mc- names and while I always thought it was weird, I don’t remember anyone else saying something about it. I don’t love the flow though and I think if you can find something else, you should try.

Agree with @sweetcaroline, @sophia_elena …oh and I guess everyone else (now that I went back and read the rest of the comments) … That the Mick-Mick here is really too much.

Similar names that have that same vibe but sound better together include:

  • Macklin
  • Max
  • Cayden / Kayden
  • Colt
  • Cole
  • Dalton
  • Holden

I like it, but in the U.K. McCoy’s are my favourite crisps (american chips)

Mackenzie?

McCoy McKinney sounds a bit matchy
