[Opinions] Multiple Middle Names
As a 90s baby myself today I had remembered and been inspired by Carmen's notably long name in Spy Kids (2001): Carmen Elizabeth Juanita Echo Sky Bravo Cortez. I always find long name sets facinating because they particularly need even more care than the average FN MN person to make sure it has a cohesive flow. I usually do not have more than 1 middle name to my ideas as a result, but occasionally I will humor longer sets with 2 or 3 middles for fun. If you had to name a boy and girl a 4 name minimal set today, what would you pick for them? For a girl I think today I would pick: Genevieve Marie-Claire Endellion Aurora. A boy: Alastair Jean-Bastien Ottavio ValorI also think Isabelle is excellant multiple middle name fodderas a younger person I had wanted to be Diana Grace Catherine Elizabeth Jane at one point long ago.there was a girl I was once friends with in school whom we had a reoccuring joke with that her "full name" was Sarah Mary Ellen Olive Rita.

I think two middle names is really cool and three middle names kinda neat, but any more than that is a mouthful. lolRight now I'm thinking Lily Cassandra Victoria for a girl and Caleb Thomas Riley for a boy.

When my husband and I named our daughter we could not decide on a middle name for her.
I wanted to name her Paisley Grace and my husband wanted to name her Paisley Elizabeth after me. My middle name is Elizabeth.
So instead of one of us compromising we just named her Paisley Elizabeth Grace. But I don't think I could ever use more than 2 middle names.

I'd just steal your idea, because, honestly, Genevieve Marie-Claire Endellion Aurora is everything that I've ever wanted :)When I think about multiple middle names, the name Jean always comes up (e.g. Iris Louise Jean May), idk why, because I don't even like Jean!But let's return to our names.
Boy:

My son has three middle names, and two surnames. It's not a problem since we never use the middle names. Today I'd name my kids;
Oliver Caspian Isidor Zacharias
Juni Vila Camilla Leonora
