There are many people here who don't like Rose, Grace, May, James, Ann, Louise etc as middle names as they are so commonly used.

If that's you, I'm curious to know what interesting middle name you chose for your child!

Clio for the muse of history. Only remembered on the way home from the registry office that it is also a car...

DD and I both have place names as middle names; both places meaningful to our parents. In DD’s case the particular location name is also a girls name.

DS’s middle name is after a relative. DH’s is his mother’s maiden name.

Loujain - after the Saudi women's activist Loujain al-Hathloul, and so the kid will know she has to come out fighting. First name charming/traditional English.

Mine are named for two strong women.

Not me, but I went to school with someone whose middle name was Beowulf. Now that was interesting.

Margaret after her granny and great granny
David after both grandpas

We used Skye. I thought it was beautiful but didn't work for a first name as well!
