Re: What's your middle name, and why?
Josef. Catholic, so I needed a saint's name. My mom wanted it to be original, so she used an F instead of a PH.

Re: What's your middle name, and why?
I have three middle names: George Joseph Patrick
I’m not exactly clear on why. It had something to do with my grandfather being in a Catholic orphanage when he was a young kid. Maybe he had three patron saints???

Re: What's your middle name, and why?
Mine is Ann ~ after my great grandmother Anna
My oldest son is Ray Carl (2 names) ~ Ray after his grandfather aka papa, and Carl after his great grandfather (Carl) and grandma (Carla), my deceased grandfather
My youngest son ~ Leif, after his grandpa and my father, aka on this website "Norski"
Would not have it any other way.

Re: What's your middle name, and why?
Warfield - not sure why, you'd have to ask my Dad. I believe its a old first name from the family bible.
My girls middle names are their grandmothers middle names. Twig #1 "Jean" my Mother-in-Law's middle name. Juicyfruit "Mary" my Mom's middles name

Re: What's your middle name, and why?
My first name is after my Grandma (Dad's mom) ans my middle name is Amy after my Dad's sister. I wasn't thrilled with my first name during school because i had too many teachers with that name (always the oldest of them). But after school I came to understand the privilege of our family names.

Re: What's your middle name, and why?
Name is Stephen Michael, I've always gone by Michael as my fathers name is Stephen Francis. I guess they wanted to avoid confusion. I havn't gone by "Michael" for ages, always Mike.
All kinds of hassles now, people don't want you to go by a middle name for some reason.

I know someone who was named after a box of Kleenex. Her mother didn't know what to name her when she was born, and she saw a box of tissues with the brand Kimberley-Clark on it. So, she named her daughter Kimberley.
