Sorry if this thread has been done before (I’m sure it almost certainly has!), but I didn’t come across any similar in my search. ANYWAY, the title says it all, what are your grandparents’ names? Old people names have become so popular for babies these days and lots of people like to include their grandparents’ names as part of their baby’s name. I’ve included my great grandparents just so I could list as many names as possible!
Grandparents:
[name]Audrey[/name] [name]Irene[/name]
[name]Margaret[/name] [name]Mary[/name]
[name]Antonius[/name] [name]Wilhelm[/name]
[name]Roy[/name] (no middle name)
Great Grandparents:
[name]Anna[/name] (no middle name)
[name]Dorothea[/name] [name]May[/name]
[name]Esther[/name] [name]Elizabeth[/name]
[name]Margaret[/name] [name]Mary[/name] (yes, she’s the mother of the other [name]Margaret[/name] [name]Mary[/name]!)
[name]Reinhold[/name] [name]Friedrich[/name]
[name]Stanley[/name] [name]William[/name]
[name]Thomas[/name] [name]Leigh[/name]
[name]William[/name] (I don’t know his middle name)
Did you/will you include any of your grandparents’ names in your children’s names? I’d like to include [name]Audrey[/name] in my future daughter’s name (as either first or middle).

I don’t know all the middle names as I don’t have a family tree on hand, as for incorporating their names I like the idea of using [name]Helen[/name], [name]Florence[/name] and [name]Jack[/name].
I’ve only just noticed that three of my grandparents have the same name or similar ([name]Bernice[/name], [name]Bernard[/name]) as their father or mother. 2nd generation [name]Walter[/name] and [name]Elsie[/name] go by [name]James[/name] and [name]Rae[/name]. Also 3 generations back in the family tree there is an [name]Alice[/name] [name]Kate[/name] [name]Eva[/name] - how I [name]LOVE[/name]!!
[name]Julia[/name] and [name]Harry[/name]
[name]Vera[/name] and [name]Michael[/name]
Great Grandparents
[name]John[/name] [name]Arthur[/name] and [name]Barbara[/name] [name]Anne[/name]
[name]Mary[/name] [name]Pearl[/name] and [name]Michael[/name] [name]Herbert[/name]
Grandparents:
[name]Lois[/name] [name]Elaine[/name], daughter of [name]Dorothea[/name] and [name]Alton[/name]
[name]Henry[/name] S. [name]Jr[/name]., son of [name]Henry[/name] S. Sr. and [name]Gladys[/name]

They are all from the South - [name]Texas[/name], Arkansas, [name]Louisiana[/name], & Mississippi, mostly. Except my biological grandparents who are from Nebraska.
