I'm planning to use double middle name for my potential baby (TTC), but I fancy using maybe even three middle name (like first name then middle middle middle). What would you think of that? I know middle names are rarely used.
I have family to honor, but I don't fancy their names, so these names might not be family names.

A close friend's daughter has five. I keep my thoughts to myself but find it ridiculous... Two is okay though 💖

Be cautious of using up all the names you like on one child. If you have more than one then you’ll be struggling to think of more names. One middle name is good, two a bit much, three verging on ridiculous imo.

Agree.

Though imo two middle names is fine. Quite distinguished even. Any more and it looks as if you're just indecisive.
