We've always put a fair amount of thought into our kids' middle names, usually as a tribute to a family member and the English/Scottish/Irish version. When my youngest was born and we found out he was a he, we really wanted to honor my then recently deceased MIL somehow who was 100% Sicilian and really couldn't come up with a male name that was remotely close so we settled on Gregory as a middle name. Saint Gregory was is the Patron Saint of Teachers and Educators and since she was one it was a good fit. First name as a tribute to the best QB in the NFL, Braeden with the expected nickname.
My sister is Sarah Elizabeth which kind of rolls off the tongue. Of course saying it for almost 30 years might have something to do with it.
4 bouts of 'couvade syndrome' has left me a bit worse for wear.
Good luck!
