Help us choose a middle name, that no-one will ever hear because no-one cares about middle names. Ha! Looking for suggestions from pre-2000 sci-fi (nothing too modern) or tv shows or from 80's cartoons. Nobody evil, no such thing as too out there. For a girl.

Came here to say Trillian. Then read and loved Ripley and Susan. How many middle names are you allowed?

7ofNine · 21/10/2021 22:23

Astrid is an anagram of TARDIS.
I was coming on to suggest Trillian too Smile
I actually know an Aeryn.
For me it would have to be Leia though (because Drummer and Nagata are too modern!) 💓
