Me too, but it sounds weird when you pronounce Tonje Kirsten... (might have something to do with the way Kirsten is pronounced over here) |

Hehe, I actually think I knew about your middle name, I just forgot about it.
Hmmm. Hanne Eva. Not really sure about that. But I'd definitly consider Eva for a daughter. I like Anna and Elin as well :o)
Hanneva ?
Erm... Good idea but no, I think I'll stick to Hanne ;o) |

So, What the hell were they thinking?
I saw this article--this poor girl has 23 middle names!
LONDON (AFP) - Baby Autumn Brown has a name to live up - in fact she has over 25 of them.
The little girl's mother Maria, in keeping with her boxing-mad family's bizarre tradition, decided to give her 25 middle names - all culled from the greatest exponents inside the ring.
Her full name, which left register office staff in Perton, Wolverhampton reeling is: Autumn Sullivan Corbett Fitzsimmons Jeffries Hart Burns Johnson Willard Dempsey Tunney Schmeling Sharkey Carnera Baer Braddock Louis Charles Walcott Marciano Patterson Johansson Liston Clay Frazier Foreman Brown.
Maria told the city's Express and Star: "The whole thing came about because both my mum and dad are obsessed with boxing and have a bit of a daft sense of humour.
"When I was young I couldn't ever remember my name. It took me to the age of 10 to memorise it all."
The 33-year-old mother added: "I'm hoping Autumn has a good sense of humour with her name. It's never done me any harm though."

in parts of ireland you take your father's name, your grandfather's , his father's, his father's father and so on, or else you take the maternal's side names . depends on the family.
for example: martin tom sean michael martin seanín tomas óg pat pat-patmichael tomas seanín rua tomás mór...

wow. goes back again to my assertion that T.G.P. everywhere in the world are sharing the same damaged brain. seriously the majority of T.G.P. are mentally at the age of 16 FOREVER. |

Same middle name as my father has; if I have a son, I'll give him Thomas as a middle name as well, keep it in the family and that.
BRAVO on your names. I have 2 boys, the eldest's middle name is Thomas and the other one's middle name is Joseph! Nice! |
