There is a meaning behind the middle name so it is not tacky at all.

 I don't think so.  I have a daughter who was born in December who's name is April.  People always tell her she should have a different name.  Screw them.

No, I think it's nice. I have a s/d whose name is April. She was born in April. Her mother named her. I don't like the first name being the same month of the birth. April doesn't either. I think naming her after her grandmother is nice, though. If it's the middle name I think that's different.

wow thats a tough one. lol if it is something you truly want to do then do it. dont worry about it. If someone says something about it, if she is born in June and you do name her June, then quickly explain she was named after her grandmother. COngrats btw

I hope it's not tacky, considering I have my great grandma's middle name (May) and I'm born in May, lmao

 Not  in my opinion! Look at all the Jan's, April's, and May's running around! I think June is a unique middle name.

   I have a friend that named her daughter Sun Aura, because she was born in Sonora, Arizona.

  My first son we named Morgan , his paternal grandmother's maiden name (Ruth Morgan).

  Another friend named her daughter Varina, because she was craazing the hot cereal Farina all those 9 months!

I don't think anything is wrong with that.  I think June is a nice name, and chances are most people won't really notice, unless your DD introduces herself as June (instead of her first name) and announces her birthday to someone as they meet her, lol.  I actually had June on my girls list- not any family significance, I just think it's a pretty name.
