Using the mother's maiden name as a middle name is very common in many cultures, but it does depend what the name is whether it sounds nice or not!Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10646816058917283580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494997935710244609.post-17074988868183857692010-01-20T14:39:01.771+11:002010-01-20T14:39:01.771+11:00I knew a couple that agreed that any girls they bo...I knew a couple that agreed that any girls they bore would take the mother's surname, and any boys the father's. They had one girl and one boy. I thought this worked out well, because then one of the parents didn't feel isolated namewise. <br /><br />We are debating the first name, and also trying to decide the last name. I think we might just hyphenate, or else use my name (I am the mother) as a middle name. But this could get tricky if we compromise on the first name debate by making one of our choices a middle name! Then the child will have four names, which is getting to be a bit like Spanish royalty.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09538707645368341719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494997935710244609.post-41389512174399426792009-12-03T20:08:00.197+11:002009-12-03T20:08:00.197+11:00jj, i was just thinking the same thing about names...jj, i was just thinking the same thing about names the other day - ie females keep the mother's name and males keep the father's name but i hadn't gone as in depth as you.<br />i do like rosalie.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04611370734776142526noreply@blogger.com
