To repeat: There are no "safe sounds". You can stop looking. :) Now, on to the poignant part: Just because there's a sound in the name of your child, _that doesn't mean it'll be a sound that you have to worry about_. Again, think in terms of variance. Sometimes a sound might be problematic, and sometimes it might not be. You can't base a singular choice of sound on something that varies like that. And the setting might even be one that's never problematic. Who knows. Basically, what I'm trying to say is - we can't live in fear like that. We can't plan a perfect life. We can't sneak our way around all obstacles. That's completely general, and that applies to stutter too.
