Re: Rachel
"Will Rachel what?"Just saying... My 1st husband's last name is Briese, it is German and pronounced "Breezy." His eldest sister was nearly named "Wendy" until his parents actually saw it on the birth certificate and then said it aloud. They immediately changed it to Yvonne lol My last name is Sweet, and I have cousins who are named Candy, Cookie, Taffy, and Sissie. Say THOSE aloud a few times and you'll see why I get so cautious around name combinations that start to sound like silly phrases, even if the names are wonderful without each other.All of these other combinations are pretty good ideas. :)

'Will' was a typo. It's suppose to be Willa.

LOL! omg, I'm so sorry... Well, Willa Rachel is nice, but not my favorite of your choices.And unfortunately, people really do make those mistakes when naming their kids--forgetting about how the names sound together, or worse yet, doing it on purpose like my Sweet family did!

Very true.I read an article close to Christmas time last year about a family that had the last name Christmas with various members named White and Merry, etc. It was wild. :)
