Do you think 2 middle names is too many when baby has 2 last names?

I'm 4 days until my scheduled c section and I keep changing the name. I've never been so indecisive about naming babies before but then again I had other input. This time I decided not to tell anyone and name baby on my own. All of a sudden I think I want to name baby girl Halle. Last week it was Mya and for the rest of my pregnancy it was ilah/Isla but I think Nayeli is the middle name.
Anyway her last name is hyphened because of husbands culture. So is Halle (Mya/Ilah?) Nayeli (last name-last name) too much? Hopefully that made sense.

I dont think it's too much, you don't really use a middle other than on documents

My children have first name + 2 middle names + 2 surnames. In all honesty it is a bit much but we prioritised a number of different factors so ended up with 5 names and I don’t regret doing it. They can always drop some later!

My dad has 3 middle names and 3 last names. It's how I get his attention. He usually turns around on the 4th name. Grin

Yes it is too much

Yes it's OTT and not necessary.
