E+J: Delete, Deny, Defraud (Part #37)

[ba1006]

My guess is they have both decided on Tommy but when Jared saw the TJ letters, he tried to cover it up by saying something about a missing M. Of course that's just a guess on my part.

[lmmomSD]

I _really_ hope they are naming the little guy Thomas, and not just Tommy.
And I am glad that Ellie didn't just shove Mason down Jared's throat.

Y'all. I'm not sure if this has been talked about, but Beau and Emily gave their baby girl a middle name!! Her name is Clara Jane. They replied to someone who asked if they had misheard (LOL), and apparently Emily wanted it and Beau was fine with it. Go Emily! No stupid Griffiths traditions for you. We all know this just pisses Jennifer off, and makes the Griffiths sisters look down on her.

Does their other female child have a middle name? Sorry to not use her name haha. Find them so boring I can’t even dislike watch them

When an adult puts questionable things online it becomes fair game for criticism. But we are all also adults here so I hope you know that spending your free time making fun of a 2 year old child's looks and comparing them to a fucking gremlin is absolutely disgusting and honestly makes you look 10x worse than Ellie and Jared. Please if you're gonna post here hold yourself to a standard and stop making everyone on this site look like a troll.

This!!! It is shocking to read comments about children from people and then they really think they are better than anyone?? No! You are Worse! Let the children stay sacred I say! They dont deserve this bullying from grown women!

Wait so they don't give their girls middle names? What's the reasoning behind that?

When they get married, they can keep their maiden name as their “middle” name. Check out Bonnie’s video of Lincoln’s name reveal. She explains that’s why Olivia’s their only kid without a middle name- so she can be Olivia Hoellein _______ when she’s married. The amount of gender stereotyping and expectations in this “tradition” is gross in my opinion.

As a woman who didn’t keep her maiden name when she got married because it sounded absolutely ridiculous and laughable — my father wasn’t upset or mad at my decision. It’s the WOMANS choice, not her parents.

Both my daughters have middle names and I honestly couldn’t care less if they dropped their middle or last name when they got married. Their choice, not mine.

I'm kept my married name even after getting divorced because my maiden name is one of those easily made fun of ones and besides, it made things easier with the kids for me to have the same last name. I kept my middle name because it was my grandmother's name and I love it. Not giving your daughter a middle name just on the assumption that she is _going_ to get married and _going_ to use her maiden name as her middle name is so restrictive and making those assumptions and choices for her just really chaps my hide.

My brother and I have my mother's maiden name as middle name and my father's last name as our last name. And my mother took her maiden name as middle name and my father's last name when they got married.

I like that way of doing it.

My one and only Daughter has 2 middle names..we wanted to honor my Mother who passed and hubbys Mother who was at her birth. My Daughter LOVES that we did that. I’m so glad. It all flows...bonus!

[Bundy]

So did Ellie actually keep her maiden name as her middle name then? Ellie Griffiths Mecham? I don’t know if she’s ever spoken about it?

That's what we're all figuring. Because it's the Griffiths way, and we all know that the Griffiths way is the best way.
I don't have any issue with a woman using her maiden name as a middle name once she's married, just to be clear. It's the lack of choice, _only_ for the daughters, and the idea that this path is laid out for the kids of both sexes. Just like Jared blathering about how he couldn't wait to watch Jackson in track meets-- like it's a done deal. The boys are going to go on missions and come home and find a wife. And the girls are going to get married young and that's just the way it's going to be.

My cousin says that before you decide on a middle name, you have to do the "holler test". You stand on your back porch, and yell all three names together like you'd do if your kid is in trouble and you are very angry.. That way you can tell how the three names flow together! I hate to say it, but my best friend's daughter's name doesn't pass the holler test. Love her, love her daughter, but the names don't flow together, LOL.

this always bothered me. What if Olivia decides to not get married? I also wonder if it makes her feel weird that she doesn’t have a middle name right now.

I think in Ellie’s sibling tag they mention that the girls don’t have middle names, but Beau does.

I don’t have a middle name. My maiden name is my middle name now. My two daughters have middle names though. When they get married they can choose what they do with their names. My older one is published so keeping her maiden name makes sense professionally.

So Jennika had her baby last night. I believe Ellie is the last one out of the bunch. Let's see if she has her baby sooner than later and clickbait it more and more.

Julie had hers too. Sorry if that was already brought up.
Bollie Brand's website did a shout-out to her as a "family vlogger". Ummmm. She's your sister. Now you decide to be professional?
