No, I wouldn't ask permission. I know this because I used my mother's name as my daughter's middle name and I didn't ask my mother if it was okay with her. I'd had it planned since I was a young teenager. I considered it my child and my choice. And if my mother had objected although she hadn't been asked, yes, I still would have used it.

Oh, and my sister gave her son the middle name Joseph to honor my father and she didn't ask my father permission first. The concept is weird to me.
