Poll question: My wife would kill me if she knew I was posting this poll...

Which is the best sounding name?


BTW. I have no idea who Keane is :hide:

[JackBeck]

1. Guess which one I voted for...n/t

[Zavulon]

2. Ryan Keane

I discarded "Jack Keane" because pronounced quickly it sounds like "Jackene."

[Zywiec]

3. I guess you already know it's a boy?

[tk2kewl]

5. yep

either would be fine with me, but it will be a boy.

[Midlodemocrat]

4. One rule of thumb is that names are more pleasing to the ear if

they have differing amounts of syllables, so I went for Brendan.

[Gormy Cuss]

6. That's a good rule of thumb.

Just as Jane Banana is a better sounding combo than Anna Banana.

Ryan or Brendan sound better than Kyle or Jack and Brendan sounds better with that surname than Ryan to my ear.

[GoneOffShore]

7. Brendan Keane

It's IMHO the most melliflous.

The others sound a bit awkward when spoken aloud.

[u4ic]

9. I agree n/t

[Nicole]

8. Ryan Keane n/t

[NightWatcher]

10. I like "Jack" but the name sounds like "jacking"

I should know, my cousin is "droolin" Drew Lin.

It sounds like a Garbage Pail Kid

[AllegroRondo]

11. a good test

go to your back door, and yell the name loudly about a dozen times. If it still sounds good, its a keeper.

[Critters2]

12. I like Brendan. nt

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

13. Brendan Keene

CarolinaPeridot is also a great name. :hide:

[Richardo]

14. Bended Knee

Sorry, it just popped into my head.

[Lex]

15. Jack is best. The soap opera or current names of the day

I wouldn't choose. Go with classic, solid names.

[graywarrior]

16. I like Jack Hoff

But Ryan Keane sounds better.

[Left Is Write]

17. Jack Keane is too hard to say with the double "K" sound there -

don't begin a middle name with the same sound the first name ends with.
