We love the name Ada!

My husband and I both absolutely adore the name [name_f]Ada[/name_f]. It is the only name we both agree on and also has family significance. The only problem is our surname starts with A (making the long ‘a’ sound, the same as at the start of [name_f]Ada[/name_f]), meaning that both her first and surname would start with the same sound. [name_f]Do[/name_f] you think that matters?

I personally think alliteration names are really sweet and charming! Think I don’t think it’d be a problem.

Ada is lovely! I think alliteration can be really fun, although admittedly it does depend on the combo for me. As long as the rest of your last name has different sounds from [name_f]Ada[/name_f], I don’t think it’s a problem at all! You could even look at it as something that makes her name extra memorable :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: If your last name has strong “d” sounds or ends in the same sound as [name_f]Ada[/name_f], that’s where I could see things maybe getting a little trickier.

Ada is sooooo pretty. [name_f]My[/name_f] name is [name_f]Senara[/name_f] S__________ and I’ve never found it an issue. Use [name_f]Ada[/name_f], it’s fabulous :heart:

I think alliteration is charming, and it often makes a name more memorable for me since it adds a bit of pep and liveliness!

Though, it can depend on the last name itself. If the sounds of [name_f]Ada[/name_f] and the rest of your last name are quite different, I think it’s just fine! For example, [name_f]Ada[/name_f] [name_m]Abraham[/name_m] or [name_f]Ada[/name_f] Ableman would work nicely, since there’s not any prominent ‘d’ sounds in the last name.

I think it works!

I think it works! [name_u]Love[/name_u] [name_f]Ada[/name_f], by the way!

I think it could work :slight_smile:

It would not matter to me. I love [name_f]Ada[/name_f] (and [name_f]Ida[/name_f]).

I love [name_f]Ada[/name_f], and I think it’ll work just fine. Alliteration names are sweet and memorable :slightly_smiling_face:

Without knowing your exact surname, I will say that it doesn’t sound like it’s a problem. [name_f]Ada[/name_f] sounds like a great name for you!
