I voted yes, but in practice it really depends on what the names are (and that would be just as true for the guys). I mean, if the first name is going to be Sabrina, and your name is Katrina, naturally Sabrina Katrina wouldn't be a great choice. But in principle, I think mom's name as a middle name is very nice - plus, it shows your parents/guardians how much you like the name they gave you, which is doubly nice.

My Grandmother's name is Joyce & my mother's middle is Joy & my middle name is Joy...so I think its completely acceptable!

i would have voted definitely yes!!!! my mom is Jane Elizabeth, and my name is Elizabeth Jane. I've always loved it and loved the connection between us. Someday when I have a girl, I plan on giving her Elizabeth as a middle name, or including it in some way, like Anneliese , liese being a form of Elizabeth.

It's a tradition in my family for the mother to pass her name down as a daughter's middle name.

My middle name is my mom's name, and I love it.

My problem is my name, Amy, doesn't flow well as a middle name - but I might do it anyway if I have a daughter. :)

AJ, enjoying life with C.
