HelpRe: Filler middle names
in reply to a message by NobodyOfConsequence
In my generation, Elizabeth is the ultimate filler. I know so many Lauren Elizabeths it's ridiculous. Other than that, Nicole is a big one, and also Marie, Lynn, Lee, and Anne. Matthew, David, Michael, and James for boys.
Despite its overuse, I do love Elizabeth in the middle. Anna Elizabeth is pretty much perfect in my eyes.
Nowadays, Grace is the ultimate. I'd never use it in the middle. Also Rose, Claire, Jane sort of, Kate sort of. I also notice a lot of Charlotte and Violet.
James rules with boys. Also Alexander. Lots of Aiden James boys. Lots of made up names like Crew paired with Alexander to lend them an air of... I dunno? legitimacy?

In the last couple of years I hear Ava Elizabeth a lot. It's funny how people tend to combine certain first names with certain middle names. I mean, Elizabeth and Grace are popular in general, but I feel that people love to combine Ava with Elizabeth, Hannah with Grace and Isabella with Rose and Jane.

Long ago, on a names board far away, a very nice man posted that his wife was pregnant with twin girls, and he wanted to name them Anna and Grace. I hit the keyboard! And he couldn't have been kinder - really, really grateful even though it meant giving up his favourite names. I often wondered what they were named.
