@ MelissaM: What about Theodore? Then you still have Tommy & Teddy. I also know of several women who got their way name-wise on the day of birth while the hubs were overcome w/gratitude & emotion ;) @ Sophie: My paternal grandpa was known as Charlie for as long as anyone living can recall but it has no relation to his given fn or mn. Then he named his second son (my dad) after himself (given name) and my dad grew up hating his name horribly and changed it legally at 18. I don't know if that story helps or hurts you or has much correlation at all, but if you & your hub have equal regret I'd say change it asap, whether legally or by using mn or nn of any choosing! @ GilaB: Thanks for the insight - I love to expand my cultural awareness!
toothfairy: My personal opinion ranks your names in the exact same manner as Linnaeus. Esp when you consider nicknames for the first two as options, thus erasing the too-matchyness some have referenced.
Wow, Amy3, that really surprises me. It was my assumption that nearly all alliteration among celebs was contrived - at least altered. Make that nearly all their names, period. As to authenticity of AG character name - for kid lit it's nice that there's been some effort made for the names to be plausible, I would hope for an even higher standard where adult historical fiction, not requiring merchandising, is concerned. As for alliteration of my own kids - we've purposefully avoided it. In fact, I don't know if there's a word for this type of matchy-ness, but I'm a bit secretly bugged that my Samuel wants to be "Sam" as our last name is Dam3. Sure it's a short a followed by long, but too... concise for sure, and something else as well.
