  • I wouldn’t think so, mostly because it’s long and not straightforward to read/pronounce.

    I find my parents approach to naming to be quite reasonable : Give a short and easy to pronounce/understand first name, and a more creative/interesting and longer second name.

    Short names generally make things easier, and about half of the people I know that have long first names (3 or more syllables) have adopted a shortened version of their name or an unrelated nickname for everyday use.

    Steffie instead of Stephanie, tini instead of christine, Ulli instead of ulrich, johan for Johannes, max for Maximilian…
