If the full names were given in the books, please respond. Here is what I do know:

Melissa "Missie" Davis (Clark and Ellen's daughter) - I thought her middle name was given in the first book

Claridge "Clare" Davis (Marty and Clem's son)- I thought his middle name was given in the first book

Arnold "Arnie" Joseph Davis (Marty and Clark's first child together)

Elvira "Ellie" Davis (Marty and Clark's second child together)

Luke Davis (Marty and Clark's third child together)

Nandry and Clae Larson (the two girls they took in after their mother died)

I've only read the first two books.

Missie's middle name in the book is 'Anne'
Clare's middle name in the book is 'Luke' (they kept that in the movie)

I read the first book before watching the movie...they sure left a lot out... but it is such a wonderful story! I am looking forward to continuing the journey!!!

I've read this series since I was a teenager and my grandparents bought me the books as a gift. I am so upset with the movies, although they are not horrible -I'd have to say they are extremely LOOSELY based on the books. I can hardly sit through them.

*Spoilers* If you have not seen the movie do not read any furter.

Love's Unending Legacy was a bit better then Love's Abiding Joy but it seemed like the movie was to short and they crammed way to much stuff into it. It seemed like Zach and Missie only knew one another for like a month and then they were married and killing off Willie was just plain stupid. The way killed him off was stupid and then they get a guy who sort of resembles Logan to play the new sheriff in town. It's like the movie people knew us fans were going to be upset when they killed Willie off so they had to go and bring in Zach Tyler. The whole movie reminded me of a Little House on the Prairie episode called The Lost Ones. Wasn't thrilled at all. I won't buy the movie when it comes to DVD.

Missie was Melissa Ann and Clare was Claridge Luke. Claridge was the last name of Marty's first husband and Luke was her father's name.

I don't remember if Ellie had a middle name or not.

I don't think Ellie had a middle name in the books. Did Luke have a middle name? I think Belindas middle name was Mae or something like that. I could be wrong though.

We are not told of Ellie's or Luke's middle name, at least not in the chapters where they are born. It could come up in another later book, but I'm not going to re-read the whole series at this moment!

Belinda's middle name is May.

I thought in the first movie Marty named the baby Aaron (after his father) Luke (after her father). She wanted to give the baby something of his father, Aaron Claridge....

right??

[–] chiluvr1228 14 years ago

Right. She named her first child Aaron Luke (from her first husband who had died).

That's only in the movie though. In the books his name is Clair. Read the books instead of watching the movies. :)
