Will the child be having a middle name?
Generally, we hate our middle names when we're young but I've come to believe that they're a great family link.
Whenever you see one of those stories of about a baby being found on a railway platform, they're only ever given one name. So, unless you want your child going through life having people suspect that they were an abandoned baby. I strongly recommend a middle name.
Accord would be good for a boy.

What are B3ta users middle names?

I have two, you can have one of mine
You're now Big girl's Philip Blouse. You're not having the other one, it's the old family name.

Philip is my dad's name : )

I've no idea why my parents chose Philip
When my first name is fairly uncommon (and awesome). Philip's just dull.

After a discussion in the pub last night,
Bedford-Rascal is now the pinnacle of middle names.

I don't have one, thank Providence.
If my Dad hadn't been so sensible and broke with tradition, my middle name would have been Cecil.

( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Fri 10 Sep 2010, 10:33, Reply)

Not in the 60s it wasn't.
It was bad enough having a Dad called Cecil.

James
It's a good name.

We've got the tradition of the eldest son taking their Dad's name as a middle name.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Fri 10 Sep 2010, 10:31, Reply)

So's mine
It was my Dad's middle name and his Dad's first name.
( Kroney, Fri 10 Sep 2010, 10:33, Reply)

we have that tradition too, plus eldest daughter takes mother's name.
but ignored it as in mr vitcs country they don't do middle names at all. my middle name is Jane, which is a good middle name.
( ascorbate, Fri 10 Sep 2010, 11:05, Reply)

yes they will
Just the one though. I agree, having no middle name always seems a little sadder...

mine is Richard, not very exciting

Again following the pattern of getting lumbered with the father's name.

Oddly mt brother who is three years older than I am has no middle name. Perhaps Mum forgot to ask the milkman's name.
