HelpRe: Siblings with same middle name
in reply to a message by Tuesday
I don't know any personally but I though the actor Sean Astin's daughters had the same middle name as their mother, if I recall correctly.
It's not for me personally but I don't think it's all that bad of an idea. If a family values sharing names as a tradition or practice or whatever it's an easy way to do it. It could be particularly special if the name came from somewhere (like, if Grandma's name was Anne and it was used as a middle name down the line) versus if it was a name that didn't have much thought behind it in the first place.
I like too many names to do that myself. :-P The charm of a combo to me is being able to pick both parts!
