    Mine is too. And neither do I. I was named for a long time family friend. That's the only redeeming thing about the name in my opinion. I've even stopped using the initial on most things.

    I have three middle names. Two from my christening, one from my confirmation. Frances Alberta Angela.

    I always use an "F." when I sign ANYTHING.

    I have a middle name. I don't use it on a day to day basis but I do use it on important documents that require it. heh. My middle name is Noel. What's funny about that is some people pronounce it "no-elle" but some (such as my husband) say it like "hole with an n".

    At any rate, I am not fond of it. Too many xmas jokes.

    Ditto. (I've only met 2 Pats who didn't have Ann as a middle name.) I use it on legal documents.

    My dad didn't have a middle name, and my Mom's rhymed with her first name - she hated it, but it was the custom to use the name of the godparent as a child's middle name.

    I'm Kari (pronounced "carry") Ann. My mother saw it in a newspaper article, as Karianne. She split the name and dropped the E. I am rarely called by both names, except for one family I've known all my life (there is a son named Kerry in their family, so to avoid confusion, I was and always will be Kari Ann to them.).

    My middle name is Reed. I'm not too crazy about it and I usually use my middle initial "R". My full name is David Reed Pizzica (one point for pronouncing my last name right!)

    Michelle.
    Courtney Michelle. No special meaning behind it. If you ask my mum, she will just say that it flowed. Just like if I was born a male, I would have been Cory Michael. I don't mind my middle name, but the only time I really hear it is when my mum is wanting me to do something... or if she is upset with me.

    I do, and I have always treasured it. It is pretty unusual, and I have never met anyone not related to me who had it as a middle or first name. It was my beloved Grandma's first name. I use my middle initial, A, whenever I sign my name, as my birth name and current last name are fairly common names, so I figure I'd better. Every one who sees my sign Karen A. Watts tends to assume my middle name is Ann or Anne, but nope.

    My middle name is Aldea, pronounced AL-dee-uh. French Canadian in origin, probably a French-Canuck version of the English Althea.

    Mine name is Crystal Sheri.

    I use Crystal S. when I sign anything too! It's in my auto-signature at work, too.
    I never used my middle initial until I was getting divorced in 1998. I guess it was a way to make me more ME.

    My Middle Name is Anne. No real special meaning, except it is my mothers middle name. My first name Margaret was my Grandmothers name, who passed before I was born at the age of 42 from Cancer.
    Maggie,

    My first and middle names are Shanna Rae.

    My grandfather's middle name was Raymond, so a LOT of my boy cousins got the middle name Ray or Raymond. Guess my mom improvised with me.

    I don't mind it, I don't know what else would go with my first name, and I think they sound pretty good together.

    I don't use my middle name as an adult. But I clearly remember the first day of kindegarten, my teacher was calling roll and said, "Shanna?". I didn't answer at first ... I thought she must be talking to some other Shanna, because NEVER in my life had I been called anything but Shanna Rae. It's a southern thing, I guess.

    My son's name is Dylan Ray, so I suppose I carried on the tradition.

    My paternal grandmother's middle name was Cornelia. I always loved that name when I was kid. My mom's middle name is Irene. She hates it, but I love it. My dad's middle name was Carl, so they combined Irene + Carl, and my sister's middle name is Carlene. I was always so jealous that she got that middle name. LOL

    My middle name is Lynn and as far as I know there's no special meaning behind it.
