If you have one and only if you're comfortable sharing of course!

I was born in ‘87 so obviously it’s Louise

You have touched a raw nerve here op. 😁 I was born in 1952. I don't have a middle name. My two brothers do have middle names. When I asked my mother why they had middle names but I didn't she said ...and I quote ...I didn't think it was necessary for a girl! , What!! 😱😱 Were my brothers ..and therefore all men ...more important than me 😁 I'm so glad that girls born today have more value than that 😎😀

I know someone called Susan born around the same time and had no middle name too for the exact same reason although everyone else in the family had one, how unfair!

Bucking the trend of the 80’s (slightly!) with Louisa for mine. (It was my Nan and great nans middle names also.)

My daughters have Florence and Ann as theirs.

Dawn. I’m not a fan tbh (sorry to any Dawns!)

BatFaceChops · 02/06/2025 20:54

I’m some sort of anomaly in that I’m 53 and I’m called Lily Grace.

Yep really.

My parents were weirdly ahead of their time and people expect me to be very young and are often shocked when I’m not!

my three sisters middle name were Marie (80’s &90’s) lol

GivingUpFinally · 02/06/2025 20:49

Mine is soooo outting as it's a very rare name. But it's unique and although I hated it growing up, I love it now.

My sisters middle names are (80/90s)

Elizabeth
Frida
Louise
Dorothy
Darlene
