Which boy's name?

Hi,
I'm hesitating between a boy's name... Ties, Wout, or Pelle. I'm a bit worried that too many rhyme.

    I really like both Ties and Wout. Not so much Pelle.

    All three are nice, but I like Pelle the most! Maybe these names are for you: Melle Jelle Tuur Teun Ewout Wouter Rijk Tijn

    From your list, I’d choose Wout. I don’t really like the rest.

    What do you mean too many rhyme? By children?

    Yeah, I mean there are plenty of words that rhyme with Ties and Wout, especially names, or the kid might get teased with them.

    Most kids rhyme with a 'p', so I guess Ties will quickly get the nickname pies. It's a really nice name though!
    I don't like Pelle that much. I'm not a big fan of names that sound like verbs (I pel, we peel).

    I think Wouter is nice

    Pelle is indeed tricky with verbs, I get that. But Ties also sounds a bit like "pee." Wouter is fine, but watch out that he doesn't quickly become Woutje, which also sounds like "pee." If you're worried about teasing, a name that doesn't rhyme with body parts is nice. I'd rather go for calm than risk.
