    Disappointed... my mom's (Lou) and my daughter's (Alana) are not on the list! I guess I'm the plain Jane!

    Another Michelle... what are you doing this for?

    I'm into Onomastics (study of names) and am researching middle name trends. :)

    Then wouldn't our ages have something to do with trends as well?

    Yes. This list contains middle names that, from prior searching, were common in the '70s-early '90s. A list from the mid-'90s to the present would look very different. This is very preliminary anyway, I'm just feeling out whether or not my hypothesis bears out enough for "real" research which yes, would be far more complex and take into account a number of factors in addition to age.

    Interestingly enough, right after I responded to this I went to one of the parenting boards I visit. There was a thread asking what people's middle names were. Of the 7 replies so far, there were 4 Ann/Annes, 2 Jeans and one with no middle name. Also, my daughter, sister, sister in law and both nieces middle names are on the list.
