Anything with Louise, Rose, may or Anne as a middle name

Hoglet70 · 28/12/2023 19:45

Just about everyone I know who was born in the 70s has Jane or Louise as their middle name.

Are they classics or safe or just lacking imagination?

Lots of Claire/Clare/Claire variants when I was at school ('80s/'90s)..... I think there were three in my class at one stage!

Also seem to remember lots of Louise/Elizabeth as middle names......

Nowadays, definitely see lots of Evie/Eva/Mia/Isla in the upper primary age group.....

My youngest is 4 and every other little girl has Rose for a middle name.
