Middle Names

I know there's already a thread about where/how you got your name to begin with, but I've always been interested in middle names period, not particularly where they came from So what's your middle name?? Does it fit with your first/last names? Do you like it??

Mine is LaBelle... Don't like it.

Full name is Amy LaBelle Barton\\ yuck

Full name.... Ashley Blaire Hodge. I love my middle name, which is why I go by it...its more interesting. However, I'm a little concerned that Blaire won't sound good with any other last name. I dunno, I guess I like my name the way it is!

my middle name is Paul.
so my official name is Joshua Paul San Julian.
My dad's name is paul, and my parents wanted me to have his name, but they did not want me to be Paul Jr.
i think that my full name kinda rolls off the toung.

My middle name is Anne. My sister's is Marie. They are the two most popular middle names in the country because they go with almost every first name. I like it.

Middle name is Blaine. Guess my mom and dad just liked it. I hated it when I was young, but I don't mind it now.

My middle name is Jacquelynn. I like it, but it took me years as a child to learn how to spell

My middle name is very common...Marie.

That makes my name Vera Marie Bialowas (Hartling).

Vera=my dad's mom's name

Marie=my mom's mom's middle name

Bialowas=my husband's last name

Hartling=my maiden name

My parents had this thing...they named both my bro and I after their parents. Our first names are after my dad's parents (who passed on before my parents got married) and our middle names are my mom's parent's middle names!

I plan to do something similar with my first daughter. Art's mom has passed on (before we met) and I want to name my first daughter after his mom.

So, our first daughter's name will (hopefully!) be:

Danuta Anne Bialowas

Danuta is Art's mom's name (he's Polish....Danuta is the polish version of Donna...but I like Danuta much more!)
Anne is for Anne of Green Gables...my fave book and movie EVER!!!!

mmmmmmmmmm. Gilbert Blythe .

My middle name is Rebecca. I actually really like it. Mainly because I don't hate it. All my friends hate their middle names. Mine is decent. I'll keep it . I got the name from my father's grandmother. But it's actually derived from the hebrew name I got when I was named after her (Rivkah), and so my hebrew middle name is Rivkah, and my parents anglasized it for my english middle name, Rebecca.

First name: Andrea (Greek, meaning feminine)

Middle name: Rochelle (French, meaning little rock)

Some sense of humour my parents had.

My first name is for a family friend. My middle name is the middle name of my mother's aunt who died before I was born. Her first name is Hazel-- glad I didn't get stuck with that. Rochelle's not so bad; at least it's unique. But nobody can spell it and everybody always asks whether my family's Heugenot.

If I were a boy, my name would be Andrew James, and I'd be called "Drew." My brother's name is Arthur James, for my dad's father. He goes by AJ. If my first name were Arthur, I would go by AJ, too.

My middle name is Lenore, and I love it. It's also my mom & grandma's middle name and we're the only people I know with it! My grandma uses it for her first name. My mom's maiden name was Linda Lenore Carey & I'm Carrie Lenore [last name] which is cool.

My sister's middle name is Burdette, after my mom's fave grandma. When she (grandma) found out, she cried and said something about how she couldn't believe anyone would name their daughter after her 'cause she had a such an ugly name! lol

I don't know how my sister feels about it though?
