If I ever have another child and that child turns out to be a male, then I will be using three names for a similar reason; I always wanted Elliot Chase but then was informed by my partner of a family tradition with the middle name William so have adapted it to Elliot Chase William!
I think it is fine, personally and I love the names you have put together! Some people might think it is a bit long but how often do you really need to say your entire name? If you are happy with it then I would go for it definitely!

a friend of mine gave her boys 2 middle names, one being her surname, rather than hyphenating teir surname. 3 names is fine.

Both my DS and DD have two middle names.
Angus Geoffrey Ian
and
Harriet Susan Louise
Geoffrey - DH's dad, Ian - my Dad, Susan - my Mum, Louise - DH's mum. So it's all very fair and even.
I really love my children's names now but DH and I would have the most outrageous arguments about it before they were even conceived!!! DH has two middle names and I think two middle names is ****y  But clearly DH won this one. |

Both my sons have two middle names, they are important male figures in out life
Hunter Harryjohn and Kainne Markandrew, we choose to have the names combined and use as one, Harry is my hubbys grandfather who was the only male in his life and is now passed, John is my grampy who has now passed, Mark is my dad, and Andrew is my hubbys middle and the name i would have called my first born who is now an angel.
I have an idea for the next baby if its a boy, but hubbys not that keen, lol.
So i say if u like it go for it.

All of my kids have 3 names
Nicholas Alexander Dean (Nicholas - we liked it, Alexander - family tradition, Dean - after his dad)
Angela Violet Jenny (Angela - again, we liked it! Violet - DP's grandmother, Jenny - after me!!)
Emily Sandra Clare (Emily - my maternal great grandmother, Sandra - DP's mums middle name, Clare - my mums middle name)
And the new addition will be
David Benjamin Dean (David - after DP's brother, Benjamin - after my brother, Dean - well after dad again! lol!!)
We like the concept of three names so we stuck with it

Can't be longer then "Charlotte Bernadette-Anne".... middle names from her Grandmothers on each side.
Didn't think how the poor bugger would go writing out official documents.....

2 out of my 6 have 2 middle names, both for family reasons....
Mason Andrew Watson ... Watson was his grandmothers middle name, she died shortly after his birth,
and
Zavier James Will .... He was born on my deseased granddads b'day, and his name was Wilfred. ( I just couldn't do "Wilfred", so he got Will!  )
So I gave them their own name, but added the family ones too....

I don't mind it but for the PITA of filling in official computer-checked forms where you only have space for one middle name initial.
