  1. 1. middle name: Halfcrocked

    2. better than nothing

    3. My grandfather Stanislaw. (he was always blitzed)


  2. louise and not after anyone there was loads of kids born in the late 70's with louise .....

  3. bailey..moms maiden name

  4. My second name is Alicia.

    My mother was Alice, her Mum was Eliza Lavinia, her grandmother was just Eliza, her Gt. grandmother was Elizabeth, and another Alicia before that.

    My grandson's second name is Alex

  5. My middle name is Jeanette.  My Mother's middle name is Jeanette and I have given my daughter the middle name Jeanette.  I am told my Great- Great- Great-Grandmother (who was French) was called Jeanette and this is why the name has been passed down.  I gave my daughter the name in the hope we could maintain a tradition.

    My sister has Paulette - there are no others in the family.  My other daughter has Patricia - for my Mother-In-Law.

  6. My middle name is Rose. Named after a flower for beauty (my mother told me this)

    I Guess it worked :)

  7. Mine is Marie, just like nearly every other girl my age. Not a family name... I like it though. It's not something embarrasing or anything.

  8. Rose, I love it, and it is my grandmother's name.

  9. Yes. It is Bernard-Christopher and Bernard is my ucles name and Christopher is my Sperm Donors name.

  10. It's Merrill and it's a man's name. Yeah it's a family name, it's almost everyone's middle name, and before that it was everyone's surname. I'd like it more if they had made it a bit more feminine for me, but it's alright.

  11. This is NOT a genealogical question.

  12. I have an extremely common first name, that is paired with my middle name 60% of the time.  So, I have one of the most common first/middle name combos in history.  Yes, they sounds nice together.  But it makes the "Guess My Middle Name" game REALLY easy.  Annoying, but I'm good with it.

  13. No, I don't have a middle name.

  14. my middle names are Lisa and Bernadette

    Lisa was the midwifes name who looked after my mom and my mom just loved it

    Bernadette is because i am roman catholic and its my saints name xx

  15. My middle name is Alexander,  Meaning Protector of man.

    It was my mother's father's name or grandfather's name

  16. My middle name is Arthur.  It was my Grandfather's (Mother's father) name.  His name was Arthur Gignac, but everyone called him Art.

    I actually like the name Arthur.  It's unfortunate it's only my middle name and therefore never gets used.

  17. My first name is the same as my father's.  However, my parents have always used my middle name, therefore that's the name I use.  (Loads of fun when filling out official forms.)

  18. Yes I have a middle name, McKee it is my Mom's maiden name. I don't hate it but I think they could have picked a better one, but I have to name my children with the middle name McKee because I am the only one to carry on the name.

  19. My mom had 12 kids...6 of them are girls, including me...all of our middle names are Marie.....Now that I'm a mom, I name my kids and just throw out there whatever name sounds good, or "goes with" the first name, maybe that's what your mom did..

  20. Yes, it's Elizabeth, and it was my grandmother's middle name.  She got the name from her grandmother, who in turn was named after HER grandmother.  I hope one of my kids names their daughter Elizabeth to carry on the tradition!

  21. No I don't have a middle name.

  22. My middle name is Danielle and funnily enough one of my younger cousins has Danielle as a first name.

  23. Mine is Kate, because it was my mothers favourite name but my dad didn't like it. I don't mind it, in fact I get told I look more like a Kate than an Erin!! Elanie is a pretty name thou, I can't see why u dont like it!:-)

  24. yes mines victoria its alright i suppose but I would have chosen something else and no its not a family name

  25. Middle Name - Ali

    yea its a member of my family and i like it

  26. I have 5 of them to pick from

  27. middle name is Allen..it was named after my Uncle..he died in a rock climbing accident...years and years ago..charming I know! True though..have a good day

  28. Mine is Lane. I love it. My dad gave it to me cause its his middle name.

  29. my middle name is Amelia, after Amelia Earhart. My mom picked it because she wanted me to be named after a strong female, so for that reason I do like it.

  30. Mine is Patricia, which has been passed down through the Family. I don't particularly like it as there has been much prettier names that have been passed down  the family line.

  31. My middle name is Floydella. It is my grandmothers name. She died before I was born but I'm so happy to still carry her name.
