Not middle names, but when I was at college I had a friend whose cousins were called 'Gus' and 'Tolly' (Augustus and Ptolemy). Googling them now, it seems that there was another sibling called Hector! And Gus, who now runs Glyndebourne Opera, has called his son Bacchus.

This was a real 19th Century middle-class striver thing to do, wasn’t it? To name your sons this?

No doubt.

My Little Red Buchla (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 6 August 2022 13:08 (one year ago) link

Does this account for the popularity of Penelope (which ranks high on my list of theoretical baby names but primarily as first not middle)?

No idea. Think that is something different since that is a reasonably common name.

(I would mildly counter that those that become inconspicuous are particularly interesting ...)

Cleopatra is a traditional Greek name! As befits the last ruler of the Ptolemaic dynasty.
