As middle names are rarely used I want something a bit quirky for dc2. Boys middle name will be Fox. Any ideas for a girl? I'm 39 weeks and currently girls middle name is just a favourite off my list that dp didn't like enough as a first. Which I would be happy with but would like to think of something more unusual if possible. Pretentious, quirky, pagan, even things that aren't 'names' (like fox) welcome.

How about a song or album title?

Velouria (Pixies)
Vespertine (Björk)
Sabrosa (Beastie Boys - this will be my DS's middle name if we ever have one!)

I'm sure you'll have plenty that mean something to you. I think this is a lovely way to give your kid a middle name. Smile

My DS's middle name is in my MN username. It came to me in a fog of morphine. Love it.

I'd really like Lovelace, after Ada, but think that the Linda connections have tainted it too much to ever really use it.

My DD's middle name is Love, suits her down to a tea and spices up her otherwise rather conventional name.

DTD1's middle name is Ophelia. I wish I'd used it as her first name. Then I would have used Seraphina as her middle name. Ophelia Seraphina. Nowt pretentious about that Grin
