R.O.Berc Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Diane So proper, so sophisticated, will this be the name you have people call you once you turn 60? :D Vaughn. That's pretty badass. But I imagine if you say your full name people think your middle name is the German preposition. You know, like that guy that tried to assassinate Hitler, Claus "Vaughn" Stauffenberg. c: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azura Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Where I come from, middle names are not as common as they are in the US- having only two names is still uncommon, but that is because most people inherit both their mother's and their father's last name. Anyways, I do have a middle name, which is Celeste, but due to an old family tradition on my mother's side my parents have always called me by that.

Esau of Isaac Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Oh wow, everyone's got cool middle names. Mine's pretty plain, just Aaron. It really has never seen any use at all other than being yelled at. :o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Insanity Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) Most Koreans I know don't have a legit middle name (iirc, you're not Korean?). They usually put their English name as a middlename placeholder or something like that. The birth certificate people split my real first name in half and made the last half of it my "middle name", which is extremely dumb because it's not supposed to be that way and my parents did NOT intend for it to be that way. My mom has one, but my dad doesn't (and he also suffered from his first name being split in half). Really? Because my parents gave me an English name, a Korean name, and then there's my last name. So my full name would be Nathanael Jungyon Kim, making my "middle name" Jungyon. And I know that most other Koreans do this as we- Wait a second, do you mean Korean-American or Korean-Korean? 'Cause if it's the latter then yeah. xP Whoops. Yep, Japanese. Parents would give their kids an American first name, a Japanese middle name, and then refer to their kid by their middle name at home. Luckily, my grandparents referred to my mother by her first name, and that carried on to me (though my mom will yell at me with both names if I screwed up big time). Yeah, I think that's how most Asian-American people are. At least most Korean-Americans. Dunno about Japanese-American or Chinese-American, though.

Czar_Yoshi Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 So I'm seeing a lot of nones and a couple of twos... But I think I'm the first person here to not remember my middle name. I'm not kidding. I have a general idea of what it is, but can neither pronounce or spell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Refa Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 TBD I really do want to have something hilarious to put on all of those 3 part name forms though. Or maybe something really cliche like "danger" or I dunno, something else. (yes, I know a bunch of people are like "haha we don't have one comedy gold" but this thread is always on the front page and it COMPELS me to answer so sorry in advance for the uh...non answer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baticeer Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Mine is Marie. Weirdly, three different close friends of mine also have the same one, but I don't think I've ever met anyone with Marie as a first name. Maybe it's just more common as a middle name? I was named after Marie Curie. Because my parents are chemists who believed in positive female role models, I think, LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zanarkin Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I have no middle name. Don't think its as common in Colombia as it is in North America. Funnily enough i have two last names so my first last name is constantly confused as my middle name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
