No he has names that have absolutely no connection to any family members.

Her middle name is a shortened version of a family name, but that's not the main reason we chose it.

Yes, DS has the same name as DH an FIL...not necessarily my first choice but it fits him now. Baby #2 will have my great grandmothers first or middle name as hers.

DD and FIL share their middle name, it was FIL's mothers maiden name. She was suppose to come to North America on the Titanic but fell pregnant and didn't make the trip.

Yes. L's middle name is DH's paternal grandfather's name. It is a big family name (DH's uncle and cousin both have it as theirs) but wasn't used in DH's immediate family. BIL has his grandfather's middle name though.
If we have another son he will have DH's maternal grandfather's name as his middle. It is also a big family name...DH's uncle and brother have it as their first name. It is also my brother's middle name. He passed away the year before DS was born, so we debated using it this time, but we liked the other name a little better with his first and I knew DH's living grandfather would be happy we used it. He was really honored we chose the name. If we have a girl she will have my maternal grandmother's middle name.

LO's middle name is my great grandma's last name/grandma's maiden name. It's a tradition to give this name to the first born girl in each family.

DS's name is DH's maternal grandmother's maiden name. His middle name is DH's name, which happens to be my MIL's maiden name. So essentially, DS has 3 last names!
