Sounds pretty unanimous!

Ftr- the names don't exactly rhyme like these examples, just more of the same sounds. But it gives me more to think about.
Thanks!

I'd name my kid Jezebel Athalia Francine or Ahab Rehoboam Aloysius before I gave them rhyming monikers. I would consider a rhyming name only for a pet. One I disliked.

I assume her name is shira miriam. Or shira Mirel. Not a bad name. I don’t know why she goes by that nickname.

She can always go by Shiri.

I'd love to blame ruach hakodesh or even hormones, but I've done both
I have a total rhyming name, like examples above, and we all actually like it , including her.
I have two no flow too long, way too many syllables kids but we only use their first names.
And I have an alliteration kid too... not bad
Don't worry, I got it right on others Smile

What about Yitzchok Menachem? Is that too much of a mouthful

You can get used to that. I know a Yitzchok Menachem and at first it felt a bit unnatural but now it totally works.

I think the idea that names have to “flow” is a secular idea. I named my daughter (not the actual name but same “flow”) Tzipporah Avigayil. In retrospect for it to “flow” we would have reversed it or used the much shorter middle name we were considering but the second name was for family and we wanted to call her by the first name.

No flow is better. My grandmother was miriam Sara. Sounds backwards to me. But this was her name so my daughter has this name and we call her by only one name
