What do people think of two parents with the same initial naming their kid the same initial as them?

I ask because I'm Megan, my Mum is Margaret and my Dad is Mike. We all have the same first and last initial which can get confusing when letters come addressed to MO and we don't know who it's for xD Now I go by MSO with my middle name in there (Sarah) to stop confusion lol.

I also think it's cool that Megan is a variation of Margaret, so it's like my Mum named me after her but not the same name xD

And how does everybody pronounce Megan? I pronounce it Mee-gan, but loads of people pronounce it May-gan. I've been told (by my father no less!) that May-gan is the correct pronounciation and that Mee-gan is the wrong one. When I asked him why they decided to pronounce it the "wrong" way he didn't have an answer xD

You'd think it would be an easy name to pronounce but EVERY teacher I had at school pronounced it May-gan. One teacher couldn't grasp the fact it was pronounced Mee-gan and called me wrong for the whole year x_x
