What is your middle name?

[Splellow]

Do you like it? I haven’t got one and have always felt slightly deprived!

Olga!

I hate mine and never use it. Got teased about it at school, it's an old lady name and was totally out of place in the 1970s.

Louise. DD1 now has it too.

Olga de Polga is amazing

Jane. Like many many others born in the early 80s!

I have two middle names - Marie and Bernadette. Needless to say, my family is Roman Catholic .

@MondeoFan ,Jane or Anne? I was a seventies baby and practically every girl I knew had Jane or Anne as a middle name 😂

I have two, one is my mother's name & the other is Beatrice, born 1981.

Funny how names come in and out of fashion ,a friend mine had Iris as middle name ( after a Grandmother ) she hated it but it's not such a bad name now!

Another Louise here 🙋‍♀️

Jayne. The Y makes me dead exotic.

Elizabeth, like half of all girls born in the 80s it seems. Also my mum's name. Quite like it, though as it's so common it's nothing exciting.

My dd has two middle names, maybe to make up for my lack of one. Both my brothers have middle names, although one is for a sad reason - my mother’s own brother died suddenly and unexpectedly very young when she was pregnant with my brother so he got his first name as a middle name.

Mine is a run of the mill one. Be cautious putting middle names online, especially linking it to a grandparent. That could be one of your banking security questions!

A friend of mine is adopted and her middle name is also her biological sisters middle name ( I think it was deliberate ) my friend also gave the same middle name to her oldest daughter which I thought was quite sweet .

My middle name is Isabella - hated it when I was younger but love it now.

I used to hate mine, now I love it and wish it was my first name! It’s Kathleen.

Helen after my granny. I like it. In some medical records/social records it's down as Ellen. With my kids I used fun names that were a bit out there

None here. Not for me or my sister. But my brother, well, for some reason he got one. Girls, apparently, don't need them. Not sure why boys do in particular, but hey ho.

My children don't have them as their surname is double barrelled, with a fair few syllables, so it was getting ridiculous!

I have one, I hate it almost as much as I hate my first name (started going by a shortened version a couple of years ago and it feels so much nicer!)

Helen after my mum, I don't think about it much but it's nice that it's my mum's name. My brother has our dads name as a middle. DS has dh's name as a middle name.

Neither of my parents have a middle name.

I'll take your Marie Bernadette and raise you Constantina Therese as middle names. And they say there's no leaving the Catholic church

Like about 75% percentage of the girls in my primary school class I'm a Louise (mid 80s....)

I agree with pp that they're a bit pointless unless it's a family name. Mine's a random choice but going up a generation in my family we did the Irish Catholic thing of lots of family names.

Jane, no connection to anyone. Very boring. Child of the early 80's.

Mine is clare. Not fussed about it but it's just so normal compared to my first name. My dbs middle name is schenker though so I feel somewhat thankful
