    Me
    Maternal - Norman
    Paternal - Arthur Ernest

    DP
    Maternal - Richard
    Paternal - Rupert Roy

    Both DP and my maternal grandfathers were not given middle names as they were not expected to live and an additional name was an unwelcome cost in the event of the death of a child. My maternal grandfather passed away at age 63 (a month of 64) and DPs maternal grandfather is still going strong

    My gorgeous grandad was Bernard (who passed away earlier in the year and he was the best! I LOVE the name!!!)
    DH's Pop is Stanley, his Pa is Raymond, his dad is Russell and my Dad is Edward William.
    Unfortunately I'll never be able to use Bernard as my baby cousin's middle name is after GD nor will I be able to use my dad's middle name that I love so much as its my nephews middle name, oh well, at least they've been put to good use!

    Mine are Robert Noel (born Chrissy Eve) and Gilbert George. DHs are Raymond and Walter William. We are using family names for our kids, we like the idea of tradition.
