My middle name is Anne... but a lot of people think I have no middle name because I go by Leigh Anne. Yes, I'm from the South but my parents are from Indiana... don't know why they went for the "two names as one ". Guess it could be worse, I could be Becky Sue or Sally Rose lol.

My mother was the cheerleading coach for my town's high school when she was pregnant. She says that I was named for one of her cheerleaders that my dad thought was just adorable. He says that is not true

I don't really like my name; it's incredibly plain. I have a one syllable last name too. BORING, although I can't imagine going by anything else.

I wish I had good surnames in my family to use as middle names for my children. One of my friends has his mother's maiden name as his middle name, and it is so sexy-sounding. But unfortunately I have nothing. Maybe my future husband will have some

My middle name is Leigh, making me Brittany Leigh. I got my middle name frommy father's first name, yeah, it is a girls name, but he got his first name from my great grandmother's first name. Kinda cool.

My middle name is Anne Louise (my great grandmother's 1st name).

So my name in full is...

Siobhan Anne Louise Poole

Grey. I am the III making me Milton Grey Farmer,III. I want to legally have it changed to William. Should I change Grey or keep it or drop it or what?

NO! Maybe I am assuming, but I think if your family went to the trouble of making you a III, it's pretty important to them. Family tradition is good. Now that doesn't mean you should make a Milty IV... but going by Grey is not bad at all.

Grey is a nice name, IMO.

My original middle name is Colleen - named for my mother.

When I got married, I couldn't decide whether to drop my maiden name or drop my middle name and keep my maiden name as my new middle name (my maiden name dies with me) - so I kept both, and use two middle initials. When I'm forced to use one or the other (like on my driver's license) I use the C.

Leigh Anne, don't complain about having a short and sweet last name. My husband's last name has more letters than most cans of alphabet soup!

My middle name is Nicole. No story. Just Nicole. So my name is Kristi Nicole (last name).....when I'm married my last name will be Carter. I *love* it

i was supposed to be born on christmas so i think my parents got noelle from that. like so many of you, i like my middle name. i hated my name when i was younger; i wanted to be named dominique or jaclyn or something easily pronounced. but now i love my entire name.

Aiiii! Me too -- I mean, my middle name is Noelle because I was supposed to be born on Christmas. Instead, I was a few days early. I used to hate it when kids would sing "The First Noelle" to me in school, but now I think it's pretty cool.

I was named after my grandmothers' middle names
Kathaleen Marie

If I had been named after their first names, I could have been Florence Eleanor!!! Glad my parents went the middle name route!

My first name has an extra 'a' in the middle, we think because when my grandmother was born, her parents had such a southern accent that the nurse heard Kath-A-leen, even though they meant "Kathleen". I think that's sorta cute. And I let people call me by my full first name, but ONLY if they pronounce the A, otherwise they can only call me Kathy...Yea, I'm high maintenance when it comes to my name...

Mine is Jo, making me Kelly Jo, which sounds very redneckish. But it is a family name, so I kind of like it. My mom's middle name is Jo and she once told me that they choose Jo for me too because my grandfathers (on my mom's side) name is Joseph and my grandmother (on my dad's side) was Josephine.

My middle name is Baron, which is my mother's name

My middle name is Irene. So I'm Rachel Irene Rosenthal. Now you know.

Jill1228 · #44 03-08-2004, 06:30 PM

I was supposed to be born on Christmas and I think that is why my mother did NOT name me anything Christmas-y

first name: Jill (no it is not short for Jillian or anything like that)
Middle name: Loretta (dunno about that. I heard it is definitely a MAJOR Southern Name...both of my parents were raised in the South)

Last name-I took my husbands. Due to being permanently estranged from my now ex-father, I dropped my maiden name

Jay. No story behind it.
