Benjamin
So, I've been set on using Benjamin as our first son's name, but it just occured to me that if he chose to go by Ben later on it might not sound so great with our last name. Our last name is Kenyon.Benjamin Kenyon, sounds goodBen Kenyon, kind of rhyme-y don't you think?

I don't think it's that big of a deal. I wouldn't let it stop you from using the name, since you've been set on using it.

I think it's fine. I've heard of a Benjamin going by Jack before though. Probably really rare but I thought that was cool.

It's not that bad. I think once you say it several times you get used to it.

But you all think Benjamin Kenyon sounds good though, right? Cause there is always that chance he won't go by Ben Kenyon.

I don't think it sounds too bad. Not bad enough to stop you from using it if you really want to, anyway.

Yes? Really think it would be ok? What I'm kind of hoping will happen is that even if he/we decide to go by/call him Ben that when he uses his last name he will say/write/use Benjamin.
