Thanks for the info Lola,

I’ve heard of changing your middle name from your original to your maiden name. I am from USA, but I’ve never actually seen it done…must be regional.
I know there is a monetary charge to just change your name b/c you don’t like it or w/e reason. So I didn’t know if there was also one if you decided to change your middle name at the same time you changed your last name to your husbands. Or even really how hard it is to change your name.
I’m not sure what option I will use:
First Middle Maiden (as 2nd middle) Husbands
First Middle Husbands
First Middle Maiden-Husbands
First Middle Maiden Husbands (unhyphenated 2 last names)

I didn’t know about Norway or other Scandinavian countries. In most Western European countries it’s not done at all (of course there are always exceptions). In France, UK, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, etc. I don’t really see people with both parents’ last names. There’s also far less emphasis on middle names.

Yes, Tone B, that’s what I was saying. There are tons of countries doing that! Not only Spanish speaking countries, from which I am NOT from either!

It’s very common here in Norway at least, not only in Spanish speaking countries.
I have my mothers last name as my middle name, and my fathers last name as my last name.

Crystal V – I’m not sure what country you are in. (I’m in USA) When I got married, I thought everyone changed their middle name to their maiden name. I had to change everything as I took my husband’s name, so there was no additional complication. My daughter wasn’t particularly fond of our last name, so she chose to drop it and keep her original middle name. I think either one is perfectly acceptable. Maybe you can pick any new middle name you want; I’d better not tell my daughter, she’s not particularly fond of her middle name either LOL

congratulations
its a really pretty name
when i first found out my friend told me it was sunday roast
im pleased to know it isnt.

It funny I said the name sounds
like Sunday Roast and mum said that
is what they said on our radio station

I actually like her name
Better than one I heard the other day: Zebra (for a little girl!)

Leslee, I am assuming you pushed your maiden name to be a 2nd middle name when you got married. Was that hard to do? Did it require a long process of name change? Or did you just push it over when you changed your husband’s last name to yours?
I’m really interested in doing this!
Thanks!

Sunday Rose, a beautiful, classic and cheerful name!
Like a beautiful rose under the shiny sun! beautiful! suits Summer!

I don’t think She would be Tuesday if she was born on Tuesday. She was actually born on Monday!
