My brother has Fn, 2 MN, SN I only have FN, MN, LN. It bothered me alot as a kid that I only had one MN. Though my mother pointed out that the only reason he has two middle names is that he was named for both his grandfathers. I'm not named for anyone.

I would like my kids to have two middle names. Potentially their first name, a first MN of our choice and then potentially a honouring MN. I think any more than 2 MN's is excessive. Same with surnames, I hate hyphenated surnames, its so cumbersome and must be really annoying for kids. I have also found that the kids with hyphenated surnames tend to have really long, complicated surnames to start with, then adding two of them is even worse!
