How many middle names do you plan on/gave your children??
My DS has two and so do I and my husband and our siblings. People have commented on the fact that two is too many and I thought that it was weird. I guess because I have two.
What do all of you think??
Re: Middle Names?
This was my thought exactly when people were commenting on two.
I know several people with two middle names and its never bothered me. Most of them are a combo of family names and names they loved or wanting to honor more people than two names would accomodate.
I think multiple middle names can sound very sophisticated when done right.
I wanted to have two middle names (my original middle name and my maiden name) when I changed my name after getting married. The California DMV told me no, that I could only have a first, middle, and last.
I think as long as all the names aren't a gazillion syllables, it's fine!
to each his/her own. i can think of legitimate reasons why someone would give their child two middle names - religious reasons, honoring family, etc.
i plan on giving my future kid(s) one middle name.
That's weird they told you that at the DMV. My DD had her 2 middle names, her maiden name and her married name put on her license. They go to the second line if the name is too long.
My husband and I each only have one middle name but if we have a boy he will have 2 MN's.
