[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did this and as the kids are near adults I am so glad that I did. They like it too (they have told me). We actually did four names: First Middle MyLastName HisLastName. [/quote] I’m from South America where this is standard naming practice. (Actually there is no concept of middle name there and official forms only have a first name and surname spot.) Everyone has 1 or 2 first names and 2 surnames. The last names are made from each of the parents paternal last name. I always liked it because it shows the blending of two families. It’s especially nice when women don’t change their names so they have an official connection to their child’s name. We did this for my American born kids too. Their birth certificates are American so we had to put the second first name and my last name in the “middle name” spot. Only my firstborn is old enough to understand her full name and she likes it. (My other child is a toddler.) [/quote]
