I like having a middle name. If I have to sign my initials I always insert it. I started this at 16 because there was someone in the office with the same initials (I worked in life assurance - yawn) and I just got to like the way it looked. I practiced my new initials before I got married, moreso than my signature, as I have a special scrawly way of writing them, whereas my sig is pretty much just a handwritten name.

And my middle name is the same as my Mum's, which makes me feel special (because she didn't use it up on my older sister).

So I guess I'll keep mine for now.
I had cool ones for the children I never had though.
I think it builds character to have an unusual middle name, without being outre.
