It came to me when I was thinking about my great- grandparents, namely my great- grandfather, who had the same middle name. As soon as I paired his first name with Monroe, it had a nice ring to it, and goes perfectly with his first name. Reply Avalon Nov 7 at 12:00 pm Monroe was unique! Found it hard to pick unique boys names Reply Mighty Mom Mar 12 at 2:04 am I found it to be enthusiastically and energetically unique. A huge break for first names that are also strong and uniquely masculine. Reply Stephen Apr 22 at 6:36 pm Greetings. The middle name MONROE is given to the first born son of the first born son of the first born son . . . in our family. My son is the latest recipient and at 30 years old now, I’m afraid the tradition will end with him*. I love the name and feel it goes great with the rest of my full name. Stephen Monroe Long. *Can’t blame him. I wouldn’t bring a child into the luciferian end times we’re experiencing. ~Keep on Keepin’ on Reply Hillary Apr 13 at 2:30 pm My family lived on Monroe St for 20 years. It was a duplex. My parents lived downstairs and when my sister and I wanted to move out we moved upstairs and rented the upstairs apartment instead of moving out. That house had a ton of memories, including being the place my mom took her last breath and went to be with Jesus. Monroe is a Scottish name that means “from the Hill” which was a joke kind of since my name is Hillary. It also means from the river Roe. I feel like God told me he would be a peacemaker and peaceful like a river. So far he has been! Reply Amber Apr 11 at 1:33 pm We chose the name after my grandfathers middle name. We both loved it before we even had kids. It’s a strong name with lots of good nicknames (Moe or Roe). We paired the name with my husbands grandfathers name for his middle name. It is so special?
