Is it weird to have two first names?

Question

I just had my 20 weeks check up and found out we're having a girl. So far I've only gained 3 pounds trying to stay active and watch what I eat. We decided to name her Lillian Rose Marie Schaefer. My boyfriend thinks it's weird to have two first names, but I think it flows well. What do you guys think?

Answer

I would just hyphenate the two names you want together so there is no confusion.

Answer

I think you should do whatever you want! Though, maybe a compromise is best since your boyfriend doesn't love the idea. Have you thought about making Rose and Marie two middle names instead of having two first names? That way legally she would only have one first name, but you could still call her Lillian Rose if you wanted to.

Answer

Our cuz just had twin girls and they both have 2 first names. One includes rose. Go for it!

Answer

I have 2 first names. Jessica Amber, nothing wrong with it ;)

Answer

Have you thought of combining the two names in the middle to Rosemarie? Or do you plan on always calling her by Lillian Rose instead of just Lillian?

Answer

My friend had twin boys and both of her kids have two first names.

Answer

A middle name can also just serve as part of the first name. My first name is hyphenated and I have no middle name and over the years I've started using my entire first name more and more. I personally think the three names might be a bit much. But go with your gut ;)
