HelpRe: Susanna
in reply to a message by Genevieve
Well, yes. There are four "s" sounds in Susanna Sanders. Plus there's a repeated "an" sound. But I wouldn't hold it against her if I met her. I'd say to myself, "Gee. I love that her parents used Susanna. Too bad it sounds terrible with her last name. But it's still nice to come across."
But I don't know if normal people (= non-name nerds) would even notice the "s" thing.

Yeah, the repeated "an" sound bothers me too. Susanna has been one of my favorite names for years. Unfortunately the man I plan to marry is named Sanders. Sigh. Luckily there are lots of names I love.

Hee, plan to marry. I'm very geeked for you. :)
Replying to your original post, I wouldn't hear Susanna Sanders and think, "Woah, too much s!" I actually think it sounds kind of sweet. I guess for me there's enough other stuff between the S sounds.
