It was a doctors middle name. His last name was Hicks.

He wasn't the first person to ever have that name....I believe that was his mother's maiden name.

And that showed me what?

It was very common among upper and middle class British (and others) to use the mother's maiden name as a middle name for sons.

That website shows his legal and full name is John Hicks.
Middle name, Braxton.
I also wasn't starting a debate, I like that name so I suggested it because it sounds somewhat similar to Jaxson. No one said you have to.

And I'm just telling you that Braxton is SURNAME.

Again.....he wasn't the first person ever to have that name.

Again....Braxton was probably his mother's maiden name.

Again....Braxton is a SURNAME.

Braxton is of English origin and means "Brock's Settlement". It was common for people to take their town or village name as their surname in the 15-17th century in England, Ireland, and Scotland.

Well I still like that name, I was just making a suggestion.
I just provided what I do know, and that's that it was"john Braxton Hicks" middle name.I personally like the name and if it was a "surname" originally I didn't know but honestly it doesn't make me like it any less. My intentions were not to start a debate.. so maybe you are right, but I don't think I'm fully wrong.
