I think I may borrow your idea and do a similar blog (I'll link back to you when I do!) <br /><br />My middle name is Leona, never really been a huge fan of it but I like its meaning (Lioness), and it has deeper meaning as I was born a two year old girl in the room next to my moms passed away, her name was Leona. I think it's pretty cool my parents had the idea to somehow let the name of that girl live on through me.<br /><br />Katie @ <a href="http://owlsandmonsters.blogspot.ca" rel="nofollow">Owls & Monsters</a>Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17199411725061290609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624303271642739916.post-57395246749834893602013-08-24T02:27:46.921+01:002013-08-24T02:27:46.921+01:00http://theeverydaymomma.blogspot.com/2013/06/whats...http://theeverydaymomma.blogspot.com/2013/06/whats-your-name.html?m=1 <br />The link to my sons name choice!Julia Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05445858333873366466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624303271642739916.post-68368465485945973532013-08-23T21:26:05.722+01:002013-08-23T21:26:05.722+01:00I don't have a middle name.

His name is Miguel Angel; pronounced Michaelangelo in English. The reason for that is because my dad wanted to continue the family name, Miguel, in the blood line and my mom really loved the name Angel, so he received both. :)<br /><br />vegcourtesy.blogspot.comAdriana Robleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18006367361358243658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624303271642739916.post-5231212381611279252013-08-23T19:04:44.567+01:002013-08-23T19:04:44.567+01:00My first name is Toyota (obviously taken from the ...My first name is Toyota (obviously taken from the car!) but if I was a boy I would have been called Benjamin so go figure!

My ...My middle name is Jane, so I'm Emily Jane. My mum picked Jane because she couldn't think of anything else to go with Emily. Funnily enough I know quite a few Emily Janes. My first name wasn't the first name my mum picked, I was originally going to be Kayleigh but when the nurse wrote it down it looked like Kylie and my mum changed her mind straight away. So then my mum chose Emily .... after a hamster. Yes, I'm named after a hamster! My mum looked after a friends hamster whilst she was pregnant and the hamster was called Emily and thats where she got the idea from. The Other option was Rebecca. I like my name but would have been happy with either I'm sure. My sister was named after a Doctor who assistant and My Brother was named after a girl. So at least I'm not the only one what has a strange name source. <br /><br /><a href="http://www.whatemloves.blogspot.co.uk" rel="nofollow">What Em Loves</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624303271642739916.post-90304515577957550732013-08-23T13:18:33.415+01:002013-08-23T13:18:33.415+01:00My name is Nicola Maxine, my brother got to choose...My name is Nicola Maxine, my brother got to choose my first name, my sister would've if I were a boy. He named me after his girlfriend in Year 4! Maxine is after my aunt. Chris & I have thought a lot about baby names and I'd love to carry on the Maxine tradition, and also use Lily, after his grandma. In terms of boys I'd use the name Adam maybe, as it's my brother's name and my best friend's surname, and Andrew, as both Chris & I have best friends called Andrew. Boys in Chris' family never got middle names until him & his brothers. I'm glad! :') Okayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17948511615365190906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624303271642739916.post-39290713343468784392013-08-23T12:00:51.982+01:002013-08-23T12:00:51.982+01:00I have a middle name, and the story goes that beca...I have a middle name, and the story goes that because I was a girl my mum got to choose the first name and my dad chose the middle one. Seemed like a fair deal to me. Although when my brother came along three years later the rules changed as my brother ended up with a handed down family middle name and my mum chose his first name!<br />I actually have two middle names now, as when I got married I chose to keep my maiden name as an additional middle name. I like that I can still feel part of my original 'gang' because my old surname is still lurking there. xlucy at dear beautifulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14389965251370657029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624303271642739916.post-38130122759052313912013-08-23T12:00:08.773+01:002013-08-23T12:00:08.773+01:00For the first 4 weeks of my life I had no name.

So then they thought they should call me after my Nan because my sister Penny was named after my Mum's mum. However my Nan's name was Phyllis May. Luckily they played with May to get Amy because I cannot see myself as a Phyllis!<br /><br /> Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18345278281208176917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624303271642739916.post-41731631872056660792013-08-23T11:57:22.549+01:002013-08-23T11:57:22.549+01:00Haha!

Harriet was my grandad's mother and Elizabeth, my middle name, was my nan's mother. We chose Ava as I thought it was different and I loved it. I'd only ever heard of Myleene Klass's daughter Ava. But now I know a few Ava's! Typical. Ava's middle name is also Elizabeth, like me. A reference to my great-grndmother who I sadly never met but I've heard she was a fantastic lady.
