Born in 94, 'Leigh'. It's my middle name and the middle name of so many of my friends born in the same year

My mum went for Denise because she said everyone else picked Louise or Jane.

My sister & I have both have 'of the time' middle names. Jane & Louise (born early to mid 1970's). I find it odd they gave such mainstream middle names & rare(ish) first names. Parents eh?!

DiamondsAndRust · 20/06/2014 14:39

Early '80s: Louise, Jane, Kate, Elizabeth, Claire

PresidentSpreadable · 20/06/2014 14:36

Louise (1974)

Titsalinabumsquash · 20/06/2014 13:57

Louise (late 80's)

NadiaWadia · 20/06/2014 13:55

Mid sixties here. Most girls had Ann/Anne, Mary/Marie, Jane or Elizabeth. Or Louise. Anne was the most popular. I remember one girl had Audrey and I felt a bit sorry for her having such an old-fashioned middle name. Now I think it's lovely!

MrsJohnDeere · 20/06/2014 13:15

Jane 1970s

Hate it!

Kerryp · 20/06/2014 12:22

Anne / Ann 90s

Jane and Elizabeth was most popular in my group of friends (I felt very left out - mine was quite unusual then, but now every little girl seems to have the same middle name as me, so my parents were clearly 30 years ahead of their time - was born in the late 70s)

That's true, Beck. My Dad was James Alloysius Mary. He never freely admitted that to anybody.
