This list contains names from some of the wealthiest American families in history. Traditionally, family surnames are often given as first and middle names. Often these families give two or even THREE middle names to their children, incorporating familial surnames. Most of these names are used for boys and girls. It is common for girls born into wealthy families to be given a more feminine first name and two or three more masculine middle names. These are authentic wealthy family names given to American babies.
