Does this sounds BLAH?

Hi! I'm 25 weeks pregnant with baby #1 and my husband and I have already agreed on the first name Grace. We just love it! Anyway, I've always wanted to "honor' my family in a way with the middle name and none of our family names sound OK, so my husband suggested that we just use my maiden name - which I like the idea, but my maiden is SMITH. Do you think that Grace Smith is too boring?? We have a longer more different last name. Thoughts?

I'm not against the idea of using a maiden for a middle name as such, but Smith does not make a good given name, and it also sounds very masculine.

Grace on the other hand is a beautiful feminine name. Maybe post the family names so people can give you suggestions based on them?

yeah--maybe use "Smith" for a boy's middle name in the future?
