Post subject: Why. Why don't I have a middle name ?
Umm.

In my culture and where I come from, its pretty much customary to have a middle name. Why was I so special not to have one ?

Now I think its time to choose a middle name, but i'm not sure which one to take. Here i'm looking for lots of suggestions, but please be kind.

Gong (wife's name) - not bad for a game show host
George washington - too long, how about GW
Billy-Bob - Red neckish...
Rocky or Rocco - My own thoughts...

Man....

Not Cornelius!

Bear in mind that I know your first name... how about Anthony?

Or Tristan.
Or Bart
Or P-Daddy

Don't feel so bad about having no middle name. It could be worse. My parents gave me my mother's name as my middle name.

Gertrude

And people wonder why I am so good at fighting.

Are they allowed to have sex with little boys just like catholic priests? Wow...Most catholic priests don't like women anyway so it works out pretty good that way
