domain creation question (blending keywords)

    I'm starting up a blog about songwriting through which I hope to give lessons. I thought of an available domain name last night that's only 11 characters long and consists of two words. The thing is, the last letter of the first word and first letter of the last word are the same, so I put the two together. Would that be a problem to the engine spiders SEO-wise? I'm not keen on hyphenating them. Or maybe I'm too obsessed with domain name length.

    Also, the domain's second word is the stronger related keyword to my site's theme. But I'm hearing rules that the better word should be the first in the domain. Still true?

    Any help's appreciated, thanks
