It was perfectly normal to have no middle name. um... well.... Sir Isaac Newton didn't have a middle name. im serious. belive me. i knew that for 3 years already becasue we learned about him 3 years ago. i studied alot about him. <br /><br />[edit to improve]: During his time period, many people didn't have middle names, and some only had initials, such as Harry S. Truman.
Isaac Newton was born on January 4, 1643, in Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, England. The son of a farmer, who died three months before he was born, Newton spent most of his early years with his maternal grandmother after his mother remarried.
