How many middle names do you have?

[Rora]

I have one middle name and one confirmation name.

I have one, and I like it.

My dad has two - one that he uses all the time, and a "secret" middle name. He wouldn't tell anyone his secret middle name - even his kids. I went crazy for years guessing how bad it could be - was it a girl's name, a dirty word, etc? I finally found it out when we had a surprise 50th birthday party for him and my mom pulled his baby book out, which had his full name written in it. It wasn't that bad, I don't know why he keeps it a secret! Apparently my uncle has a "secret" middle name too - I don't know what it is, but it might be the same as my dad.

Just one for me and that is all I need or want.

Zero. My parents didn't give any of us a middle name.

DS has two middle names.

I have four names; Lisa Marie Sarah Elizabeth. I've gone by Lisa and Sarah but never Marie or Elizabeth. I have 4 brothers and no sisters so my mom went a bit crazy and jammed me with all the girls names she liked. My brothers all have one middle name. Personally I think it may have been a power struggle between my parents but they've never owned up to it.

I only have one... my girls only have 1, but my son has 2. His first middle name is after his dad...his 2nd middle name is my dads last name (since there were no boys to carry on the last name).....

I have one, as does my husband. Our children have two. One is Chinese and is a prefix chosen by my husband's dad (who is Chinese) along with a hyphenated part chosen by us. Then they have their regular Christian middle names. Since neither my husband nor I speak Chinese, we normally butcher the pronunciation of the Chinese names. For example, my youngest son's full name is "T. Kristopher Shi-Ming Chinese Last Name that Will be the Butt of Playground Jokes". The Shi-Ming is harder to pronounce than it looks.

My parents gave both my sister and I 2 middle names (4 names total). I have always gone by my third name, not the first.

My youngest also has 4 names.
