Don’t Forget about Initials

When you’re choosing a middle name for your baby, make sure you write down the initials for all of the combinations that you’re considering. This is because three letters can spell out a word (and if you choose two middle names, four letters can spell out even more words) so you’ll want to make sure they don’t spell anything inappropriate.

Once you’ve narrowed your choice of name combinations down to a lower number, I would also suggest that you search online for the initials to make sure they aren’t an acronym for anything you wouldn’t want your child associated with.
