Symbolically it's not terrible? Two separate notes coming together to make something greater than the sum of its parts.

I'd never name a kid that, but I'm not super passionate about musical structure. Id certainly rank it higher than other 'inventive' names kids his age tend to have.

Back when he was first cast on Glee, I remember everyone wondering if that was the name of the character or the actor.

I mean, I love music. To say it's one of my passions is an understatement. But I wouldn't name my kid "Effect Pedal" or some poo poo like that. That would just be cruel.

What are you looking at?
Chord Overstreet is the name of a musical about boys at an Irish Catholic school discovering their love for being in the orchestra and how it allows them to escape the harsh reality of Northern Ireland in the 1980s.

Doesn't a chord need to be at least three notes? So maybe he was adopted, and his parents are three bachelors with a giant Manhattan suite.

Harmony is already a super popular name, and I know a kid named Aural and another named Sonus. People who are into music are the foot fetishists of the naming world.

Can speak to this. I'm a musician myself, and so I know a lot of musicians and people adjacent to the music scene where I live. One of my friends has twin daughters named Melody and Lyric, and a son named Leopold Amadeus.

For some reason Harmony and Melody register as totally normal names for me, but Chord still sounds loving weird.

Check your tuning if chord is sounding weird. Your b string is probably out.

Taylor Swift re-recorded some of her older music, including a new 10 minute version of a song about her and Jake Gyllenhaal, and Swifties are pissed at Jake. They dated for 3 months in 2010. It’s completely rational.
