Lucinda & Paul would make lovely middle names.

I think it’s cute, a great way to honor family. :)
I also think if you give them an older name, there are more "modern" nicknames for when he/she is a kid. (Lucinda-Lucy, Jemima-Jamie)
I like Lucinda and Irene for girls and Neal and Paul for boys.

I agree with the 2nd post, its a sweet thing to do but you have to think of your child as well, give them a modern spin. But if you really want to keep then as is id pick Pearl for sure and either Neal or Cyrus. Goodluck

I think it depends on your taste. Like others have said, it is a great way to honor family members. If it were me, I would lean more toward using the names as middles, but it’s your call. Good luck!

Yes, it is a nice idea. For a girl, I like Lucinda. For a boy, I like Paul.

I like Irene and Paul. The rest are a bit too out-dated or just not so pretty. Lucinda to me sounds like a witch’s name. Sorry. But you could do something like Lucy, which would honour her but not directly. My parents used a more modern version of my grandmother’s name for my name and I love it!
