As you're probably guessed, I'm stuck for middle names!

Serge -

Definitely John. It's a good strong, masculine name.

Fletcherl · 19/08/2016 22:02

Saul. My choice
Gilbert DH

Sadly we never had children of our own

capercaillie · 19/08/2016 22:04

Alexander - love the name but had a girl second time.

velocitygir1 · 19/08/2016 22:15

Lawrence Douglas, both names of my two dead great uncles.

I have a Callum and a Ewan :-)

cornishglos · 20/08/2016 00:06

A family name

EssentialHummus · 20/08/2016 00:11

They'll all have (Russian) DP's first name as a middle/patronymical, so no need to choose. Rather relieved as choosing the first name is hard enough.

Ham69 · 20/08/2016 00:27

Middle names are essential.
Everyone has that school playground conversation at some point, be very boring without one. My DS has his uncle's name as middle name. If I were to have another DS, which I won't, I'd use my late grandfather's name Ernest. Not James. Everyone has a relative with that middle name.

Carter

Enkopkaffetak · 20/08/2016 01:28

He would be named after FIL Bertram

JetSetWilly · 20/08/2016 01:31

William. Can't believe how many said the same!

MishMooshAndMogwai · 20/08/2016 01:33

Will

My late grandads name that is love for a first name but now have a william for a step son so that's that plan ruined! Grin

Strokethefurrywall · 20/08/2016 01:46

Scott Carlton would be the middle names. First name would be Griffin.

Scott is BIL name and Carlton is a family name which I love.

Both DS1 & 2 have two middle names.

MrsGardenIng · 23/08/2016 15:02

Christopher or Alexander depending on the first name.

itssquidstella · 23/08/2016 15:10

Gilbert or Montgomery

MrsJoeyMaynard · 23/08/2016 15:19

I would like to use my dad's name, but DH isn't so keen as it's a bit dated to modern ears. Grandfather's names have all been taken either by our DS's or other family boys of a similar age.

SorenaJ · 23/08/2016 15:58

Christian. A family name.

HerRoyalNotness · 23/08/2016 16:07

Dane (my DB name and this will be our last)
DH wants Murphy (boy or girl(!) he is a movie buff, grrr)

ArmyInRed · 23/08/2016 16:08

Benjamin.

Horseshoe1 · 23/08/2016 16:56

Sebastian.
It depends on your first name choice but I like a long middle with a short first! Alexander also sounds lovely.

soundsystem · 23/08/2016 16:59

James

(My late granddad's name)
