Hi, we're planning baby names and we've got a first name for a boy sorted, just trying to decide on a middle name! My dad's name is Bradley so we thought it might make a good middle name. I wondered what other people think of the name?

If it's a family name, and you like it, then I think it's fine, although it is quite dated, it was popular in the 90's. What's your first name choice?

I think anything is fine as a middle name as long as it sounds nice with the first. If it is a family that is a bonus!

I think family names are lovely for middle names (all of mine are) and Bradley is a nice name too! Its a pretty private kind of thing anyway really, you rarely (never) introduce yourself with your whole name

Think we may see more with the Wiggo factor.

Thanks, agree it's really nice to have a family name - I was just unsure as think we'd only want it if it's a nice name and there don't seem to be many Bradleys around so I wondered how the name is seen by people who don't have a dad with that name! I'm a fan of Brad Pitt and Bradley Cooper too so I guess there are other Bradleys around! Any other views welcome!
