Come on...What is it? And do you like it? I used to hate my middle name. But now that I've grown up, it's not so bad. I just didn't like my nick name that came from it which was 'Nicky'. My middle name is Nicole. My mom used to call me that. Nicole isn't so bad though. :-)
What's your middle name? Do you like or dislike it? Have a story to tell about it?
Have a wonderful day!

my middle name is chun-yin which is basicly my cantonese name. if you take my last name and combine it. Lam chun-yin, you get my cantonese name. a friend of mine gets my name confused with another friend and decided to make me a nickname. She sometimes calls me chunny-kun now XD sounds kinda cute in my opinion lol. yup, thats my middle name

I like my middle name NOW. It is Myree, which is pronounced Marie. My great-grandma on my mom's side was named Marie. But my dad's mother's middle name was also Myree, just spelled differently. So they gave me the middle name Myree, keeping the unusual spelling. Only some annoying teachers would see it and say, "My Ree?" Ugh! Now I treasure it because I understand the implications from where I go it. : )

Like you I didn't like my middle name, William, when I was young. Now my passport shows Michael William on line one and my last name on the following line. However in most countries I get Mr. William, and you do get use to it.

My middle name is Lynn. I actually always disliked my middle name and even as an adult I still do! I hate telling anyone what it is. I'm not really sure why though. I just don't like it. No good stories behind it though!

My middle name is Beth. Everyone always wants to make it Elizabeth and it's not. Just plain Beth. I do like it. It is simple and unique because it is just plain Beth. My husband likes to tease me and call me Bethany. I guess I kind of like it. He and his son would call me Tracillia Bethany. :)

My middle name is Lynn. The only story about it is that I have a cousin that was born three months after me and her family named her the same as me.. both of us are Theresa Lynn, though they did not put the H in her first name. Our families were about 1100 miles apart during our births and neither one knew about the names until after both of us were born.. Growing up they called me Theresa 1 and her Teresa 2... we both hated that...
I don't recall ever disliking my name, though I used to get upset at those that pronounced it wrong, or tried to call me Terri. I never did like the name Terri...
My cousin on the other hand always hated her name and when she was older she legally changed the spelling and now her name is Tresa...
My middle name goes good with my first name,so I never had a problem with it.
I love my daughters name, Katherine Renee.. she just got to where she likes it...she hated it growing up. We call her Katie for short.. She is used to it now.lol

My middle name is Jay. Being a girl, I never liked it. I always thought that Jay was a boys name. My father had 3 girls and then really wanted a boy and guess what, another girl. He named me. I guess that he liked the name Jay so gave it to me as my middle name.

My middle name is MONICA, it is such an old fashion name for me. My friends and classmates used to tease me using that name. And since im the only person that they know with that name Im the only one who'll be pissed off. But I love my middle name, i rarely use it though but I always put it in applications and in test paper. Im proud of it. My parents only call me MONICA when they need something from me which is pretty funny.

I have always loved my middle name. My middle name is Yvette. I love it for two reasons. 1. It is not a very common name (at least not 28 years ago) and 2. Because my mom has the same middle name. She passed it down to me. Well I liked my middle name so much that I have started a new tradition in my family with the girls. When my daughter was born I gave her the same middle name as my mom and I. I am hoping she keeps it going if she has a little girl when she grows up.
