Re: You just had septuplets.

It was my maternal grandfather's first name, and it was his first name because he was descended from a prominent family whose surname was Byram. He was Byram Stanley Jr, his father also having been named Byram Stanley. There is a small town in New Jersey, which is where I'm from, named after the family. This article about the town mentions them:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byram_Township,_New_JerseyAs I said, all middle names are honoring, so it would be to honor him, and also all of my ancestors of the Byram family.
