I have two middle names, my mum had three middle names. Paperwork isn’t an excuse/ reason not to add an extra name. Add one to both your kids, or wait until your daughter can voice her opinion.

I have two middle names and I’ve always found it a pain. Mostly because none of my paper work can agree if there’s a hyphen or not. Changing my name has been on my to do list for years

I just get grumpy when only one of my middle names are used. It’s either both or none. Mum resorted to first name + 3 initials and surname in most cases.

Maybe it’s just because I don’t like my name in general, I like one of my middle names well enough but the first name is awful and the second middle just seems like a throw away lol

I understand. One of my names has been used over 4 generations so far. The other middle name is another one I inherited from an aunt. I’m resigned rather than loving them. My first name is entirely my own.
