HelpRe: What is the highest amount of middle names you know of?
in reply to a message by curious
Hmm, its all about personal taste & more often than not it has to do with family history. Everyone on my side gets two so that what we'll be doing. However, esthically I could tolerate 3 but its just seems like people are naming a bank then. After awhile it can make the parents look like they weren't naming a child but rather just trying to appease their egos and get everything they wanted in selfishly IMHO.
However, I remember a birth announcement that made headlines 5 - 10 years ago or so (somebody here must have the actual name, I'd love to hear it again. *nudge*) where this girl was given 13 middle names because she was born after 13 hours of labour & on the 13th day of the month (for some reason February 13 comes to mind) and that just seemed like a ridiculous publicity stunt to me. I remember thinking that it must have been a joke. Thats just too many names and quite frankly takes away from whatever the child's first name is. Besides, isn't that the fun & hard part - eliminating names & picking suitable combinations?
