Struggling a bit to think of a middle name for #2.
Any suggestions welcome. Fill in the blank š
Phoebe [blank] Davies
Monica Rachel?
Make sure you check the acronym on any choice.
Probably not anything beginning with M... Remember that the last letter of the acronym may change!
What was second choice after Phoebe? Use that (unless it doesn't go).
Funny how names come round - loads of Phoebes amongst my friends' kids.
Kate?
Do you need one? Wife and brother in law don't have one. Find that more interesting than discussing other peoples middle names.
Or Dave.
Grandparents names on normally good :/
*Hopes no offence caused*
Heheh.
'Cheebie'
My great aunt had her mother's maiden name for a middle name (Ellis), as that was quite a prestigious family and I guess they didn't want to lose the connection entirely. I've always thought that's quite a nice way of coming up with a middle name with significance to it.
Our 2nd was going to get the wife's middle name as a middle name. But we decided Jane* wasn't approprite when it turned out to be a boy. So he got my middle name as it is also both grandfathers first names.
* I know, bit of a plain (no pun intended) name. But apart from being the wife's middle name we thought it went well with the chosen first name. Poppy Jane.
We have a middle name for boys in our family that has been passed down the generations. Silly really.

or makes people think you have such a terrible middle name that you won't tell them what it is...
Do you have a crystal ball? Names & significance of names can change with time, I doubt that my grandparents would name their cottage "Gaylands" & very much doubt I or my neighbour would have been christened Richard had we been born into more recent times.

Yes, likewise.
Surely there are better places to ask than MTB forum?
("Sea" is my suggestion)
Something that rhymes, like mine.
It's a great ice breaker.
Especially when your name also rhymes with your Brothers..
My parents were smocking something I reckon š
Montague

Your first name is "Okie"?

Your parents might have been onto a good idea. This day is going downhill, fast.
My step daughter is called Phoebe. Her middle name is Alabama taken from True Romance.
Mother's maiden name?
I don't have a middle name.
My dad has my grandad's first name as a middle name.
My grandad hated his given name so much he called himself something else.
I'm quite pleased not to have a legacy like that, tbh.
common name but cadence-wise elizabeth sits nicely in there

My sister recently played the ace card of using my grandma's maiden name for her daughter's middle name. As the last of the Deboos die out with my grandma's generation, little Joni's instantly become the favourite grandchild. All's fair in the favouritism wars!
My three girls' middle names are:
Joy
Serenity
Beth
Jessica Hyde?
On the middle name passed down the eldest boy in my Family was given William and the next James. I like the idea as it's a connection that I can see going back a long time in my family.

Why not carry on the Greek/Roman mythology theme set by 'Phoebe':
Hera, Juno, Minerva, Athena, Ceres, Hestia, Vesta, Hecate, Selene...
How about one of the nine Muses: Calliope, Urania, Clio, Polyhymnia, Melpomene, Terpsichore, Thalia, Euterpe, and Erato.
All wonderfully pretentious and Middle class...
Why do you [i]need[/i] a middle name?

Something with one syllable would roll nicely. Someone said Kate on the last page - that would work.
Spudulika?
Myfanwy
Bee Bee?
We used Grandparents names for first and middle but for a girl it just has to be Bob never tell her just wait for the reaction when she discovers Black Adder for the first time.
Two pages and no one has suggested

And yeah, the possible downside is what happens if you googleimage Phoebe Cates šæ

Definitely. The surname is double so it makes 'poetic' sense.
My Wife gave me free rein on the middle names and my Daughter got Kona and my Son Keasey (after Ken). I don't think she'd take that risk again, lucky I saw a man with a scalpel.
Wavy
Why do we need a middle name?
What is the purpose of it?
I see it as a reason to have abit of fun. Its partly hidden after all.
My son's is Fox.
We always liked Ava as a girls name but we had 2 boys before medical (slice!)intervention prevented us having any more.For middle names son 1 has the name of a good friend who was taken away from us and son 2 has my wifes favourite uncles.

Monkey jnr got his middle name from our dog. Probably doesn't help you though.
