Paul (DH's grandfather and DH's middle name)
Hudson (the area I grew up in is called the Hudson Valley- I moved 13 years ago and miss it terribly) -
Kate. We loved it and...well....
-
Claire, just liked it.
-
Alexander and Sommer. They are our moms' maiden names. Alexander is also my husband's first name.
-
Battle- DHs grandfather's MN
Kate- no significance
Parker- DH's great grandmother's maiden name -
Claire and Josephine...each is a name that one of us had suggested for a first name.
-
Alexander.
I have always loved it and thought it fit well with LO's first name. We found out after he was born and we shared the name that it is also a family name on my mom's side.
-
His middle name is my grandmas middle name. Which is her moms maiden name.
-
Scott. It's my dad's middle name.
-
Davies-DH's maternal grandparents' last name
Francis-a name that appears quite a bit on maternal/paternal grandparent families -
Jacob (DH's fave biblical name)
Michael (FIL's MN) -
Michael: Was the name of DH's father figure.
Adler: We just liked it. -
Sophia
-
Martin. My dad's name
-
Fredrick, my dad's name
I wish I had also added the family names that's been used as a mn for generations, I share it with my mom, uncle, cousin, grandfather, etc. I've thought about changing it to have both.
-
Grace. It will be significant if #2 is a girl too!
-
Josephine. We have family members waaay back on both sides named Joseph and Josephine.
-
DS- James, which was my Dad's middle name. He passed away a few years ago.
If this LO is a girl, middle name will be Evelyn after my mom who has also passed away. If it's a boy, we'll probably use FIL's first name or middle (Donald or John).
-
Maddox and Madison. We picked them just because we liked them.
-
my maiden name -- we never even discussed other options.
When I got married, I took my maiden name as my middle name since my original middle name had no significance.
eg: I was born ABC and my Husband's last name is D. When I got married, I changed my name to ACD, and dropped B entirely. -
my mother's maiden name, which is also my brother's and my middle name
-
Eloise | a variation of my middle, my dad's middle and my great grandpa's first
Taylor | one of DH's middle names. -
DS has two: Danger Akira
Danger - DH has always wanted it to be a middle name
Akira after Akira Kurosawa, the kanji, and I wanted a Japanese name -
It's my las name! I first "discovered" this trend when my friends from law school started having babies - to keep their last names in the equation along with their spouses' last names. We really liked the idea! So our son is Cooper [my last name][spouse's last name].
-
Scott - it is my DH's middle name and also my brother's first name.
My maiden name is my middle name now - but it is a mouthful so I wouldn't make my LOs have it.
-
Jane, for my mum
-
Her middle name will be Delaney. No significance, we just like it.
-
DS1 - Mats, after DH's grandfather (in Sweden)
DS2 - Ray, after my maternal grandfather and also DH's first sponsor in AA. Mostly after his sponsor really. -
Jane ... after my great-grandmother & my mother in law.
-
Anne Marie (MIL's middle name, favourite Aunts middle name)
Mackenzie Rose (Husbands brothers name, Rose we just liked but it turns out my husband has a great grandmother named Rose)
-
DS1 - DH's name (family tradition is to give the first born son the father's name as his middle name.
DS2 - My mom's maiden name. I wanted to honor my side of the family and my dad's name didn't sound right with his first name. Plus, my dad for some reason told me not to use his name. Weird
-
Amelie. In honor of my grandpa Anatoly
-
Michael - family middle name
Matthew - we just liked it -
DS has DH's same name so they obviously share a middle name.
DD's is Mae, after my great grandmother. -
Everett - we just liked how it went with DS's first name.
-
DD has my MiL's name and my husband's surname as her two middle names.
-

Elisabeth after DH's late mother.
