What do you think of having two middle names?

Question

I want to name the baby Joseph after my dad, Walsh after his uncle (more like a dad than an uncle, really), but I also love the name Braedon. How about Braedon Joseph Walsh Costello? Too much?

To Robert: Um, ok.

Answer 1

The name you have chosen is wonderful. Especially since the individual names have so much meaning to you and eventually your son. I am sure that he will proud to be named after people who are so important in your life and his...

Best of Luck!!!

Answer 2

Joesph Braedon Walsh Costello sounds good

Answer 3

Definitely, pls that's just tooooo much poor kid will take a lifetime to just learn how to spell his entire name keep it simple for the kid do him a favor and give him two other brothers next year and the year after unless u can do both brothers next year with the help of fertility drugs. By the way seems like u might think about getting off those tripping drugs now. Just kidding don't go off on a tantrum.

Answer 4

Great name.
I have two middle intials (J.N.) that stand for my paternal grandfather's name. My only issue with having more than one middle name (initial) is that 99% of of forms only allow for one space for a middle initial which is frustrating. Just an observation. I usually just leave the inital space blank unless you can write out the whole name. I would not let this deter you from naming your son the name you chose, which by the way, is a good one.

Answer 5

No i do not think it is too much. 2 middle names are fine but i think more than 2 is too much. I gave my son 2 middle names:
Julian Hunter Lee _________ (Last name)

I loved the name Hunter and had to put Lee into it because that is both my husband and my middle names including our fathers as well. Name your kid what you want and don't worry about what others have to say about it.
Good luck

Answer 6

I think two middle names is better than two first names. You hardley ever use ur middle name anyways, so why not? It'll mean more to you than it will to him...i mean how often do you think about your middle name anyways? If youre catholic and you don't have a catholic first name, its sort of tradition to adopt a catholic name as a second middle name at your confirmation. Try adding a name at 12. I had to add Veronica to my name in the 7th grade.

Answer 7

I like the idea of having 2 middle names. I wanted to do it w/my kiddos but my husband thought it would be too much to spell. I think that the name you have chosen sounds great.

Answer 8

I love the idea i have a 3 year old and she ahs two middle names her anme is Shiar Nicole Lee Eason

Answer 9

Personally speaking, two names is a great idea. I have two middle names, Lyn Blake. My mother chose my first name, and my father proposed the idea of Lyn as a middle name, and my grandmother proposed the idea of Blake. My parents could not decide, so they used both.

Answer 10

I don't think it's too much at all. I think it's a good name and a nice way to include the special people in your lives. However, my opinion, or anyone else's, doesn't really matter. This is your baby and you have the right to name him anything you want.
