I have one, it was my Grandmother's name. Two of my Granddaughters also have it as their middle name.

I have one. It is an old-fashioned name that has been given to first daughters in my mum's side of the family for generations, as either a first or middle name. My daughter has it as a middle name too.

I don't use it often, but add the initial when initials are in use (eg Action Points on minutes) so that there is less confusion.

My grandaughter is going to have a baby soon and I presume he/ she will have a middle name. I hope so. It is one of my regrets that my husband did not want his daughter's to have a middle name as he thought it was only for " posh" people. I have a middle name and I am not posh I told him . I did however make sure our son had a middle name but I still regret our daughters didn't
