John Adams did not have a middle name, his full name was John Adams Jr. I have read two separate things one says John Quincy Adams was the first President with a middle name, another says John Quincy was his full first name and he didn't have a middle name, I don't know which is accurate.
His full name was John Quincy Archibald.

Yes, absolutely. For example, there is a famous record producer named Quincy Jones. But the historical name "Quincy" was a last name, and it belonged to a very famous family in early Massachusetts history. You know the name from John Quincy Adams, the 6th president of the United States; but there were other people with the name Quincy, like Josiah Quincy (who was a colonel in the Revolutionary War) and Dorothy Quincy (who married John Hancock). An entire city, about seven miles south of Boston is also named Quincy. (There is another city in Illinois with that name as well.)
