Thanks for the input! I want my children to have their own individual first and middle names, partially because I've gone by my mn my entire life, so they are important to me. And we've decided to use both my last name and my husband's for all of our children. I don't want only one of my children to have my name, since I will always use it - I want their names to always have a connection to my last name, too. So, all will have Thompson M______, as their last name, though to some it would just seem like a double middle name with Thompson always being the second mn. Anyway... just want to explain. But thanks for the constructive suggestion!!
