Okay, baby three coming along; I have a name, dp has a name, and the two older dc have chosen a name between them. This gives our new dd three names instead of the conventional two. Does anyone have experience of burdening providing a child with three names?

DS1 has 3 names (because his dad insisted on a third). It makes no difference whatsoever to him. Its not something that comes up, since virtually no one uses their middle name(s) for anything.

(In fact, I now think of it as the norm even though it probably isn't.)

Both my children and my DH have three names each. It's not a problem as they only ever use one at a time.
