We only want to use a family surname for the middle name and almost all of them don’t go with [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] either because they start with F (don’t want MF initials) or T (I think it is difficult to say with the ending of [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f]) and [name_m]Davis[/name_m] isn’t much better because I feel like the D sound sort of runs into the end of [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f].
[name_m]How[/name_m] bad does it sound to you?
I don’t have any trouble with the -ite flowing into the D, but when I say [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] the emphasis is on the last syllable, and [name_m]Davis[/name_m]'s emphasis is on the first. It’s not a big deal, it still works for me, and for a family name I’ll shrug off most things like that.
I think [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] [name_m]Davis[/name_m] works quite well actually.
Good move on avoiding the MF initials
I don’t hold surnames as middle names to near the same ‘flow’ standards as most middle names. [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] [name_m]Davis[/name_m] isn’t ideal, but it’s not bad at all. I don’t think it’s a problem.

Thank you all! Now I don’t feel as bad about using it if we decide to. Saracita- I have thought about an additional middle but since my older daughter only has one, I feel like it might be weird to switch it up for another girl.
[name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] [name_m]Davis[/name_m] is fine. It’s nice to use a family name in the middle spot. I love your girl combos of [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] [name_m]Davis[/name_m] and Roseline [name_m]Talmadge[/name_m].
