Is Barrymore her middle name (more)?
in reply to a message by Sofia
Just wondering. I think it's kind of cool to use a maiden name as a middle name. I also really like Olive even though it's a bit celeb trendy. I don't like double surnames at all, especially if they're hyphenated. I mean I understand why some people want to use them but they almost always ruin a good first/last name combo for me. Of course there are a few exceptions. Anyway, Olive is lovely.

YesFrom what I gather using family names is traditional for Drew's family (both her first and middle names are family last names and the same for her siblings and other family members).

My thought on that was that she's the only Barrymore still in acting, so she wanted to pass the name on. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrymore_family
