我觉得middle name没什么用,好像没见过有人把first name缩写,middle name写全称

【在 l*****i 的大作中提到】 : William在美国好像大家都叫Bill的吧?

文件时是另一回事。有些表格根本就是让你写 middle initial而已。

Why do some people use the initial of their first name then go by their
middle name?

they like their middle name better.
i once dated a dude, i thought his name was alex forever. then i saw his
name written H. Alexander C*******. I asked what the H stood for... it was "
Harold." Oh, no wonder he was going by his middle name. He'd be the only 18
year old Harold in recent memory.
my bass player goes by his middle name because he doesn't think he "looks"
like his first name, Doug.

My son has the same first name as his dad. I call him by his middle name. If
I would''ve switched the 2 names then his initials would've been BM. I just
couldn't do that to him. I worked in a daycare and BM is how they refered
to poop diapers. It has been a pain though because he is called by his
middle name but his insurance card, school records and other things use his
first name. I don't think I would make that mistake again.
My dentist goes by his first 2 initials...JB
My grandfather hated his middle name so he always just used the initial in
his name (Joe M) and would never tell anyone what it stood for. I KNOW
though!

Because we hate our first name!!!
My whole name used to be Shirley Renee Barrett, I HATE the name Shirley, I
don't know why, I just do, (No offence to anyone named Shirley)
Now that I'm married, instead of dropping my last name, I dropped my first,
it's Renee Barrett Morrow now.

I dont know the other ppple's reasons, but in my case, it is bcoz i dont
like it at all.
It was my mom's choice, but i dont agree with her.
Even, i dont use the initial either.
I use my middle name and my single last name. I dont use my husband's last
name, in spite of i'm married from longggggggg time.
I bornt with a family name, and i'll keep it till i die.
Why to change the family name??I'm proud of it, and .........about the
family name of my husband, i respect it so much, but could have been any....
....
I dont understand the women that after divorce, still use the ex last name.
I didnt give middle name to my sons either..I think that 1 is enough. The
only condition is not repeat same name in the family

I never really noticed it, but i think its because they think it makes them
sound more prestigious, i'm no to sure, mines would be A. Thomas Fitzgerald,

Some people don't like their first names, but since they didn't legally
change it, they have to use it..or at least the initial... on legal
documents.

人,但看了长帖觉得都是因为不喜欢first name啊,那就和我们用中文名做first name
的意愿背道而驰了。
又想起个问题,小孩儿将来是要办中国旅行证和户口的,用英文名做first name会有不
方便吗? |
v******i 发帖数: 2228 | 13 我的学生里,有那么一个go with middle name的
一开学的时候很麻烦,因为不知道他是谁
后来终于按照last name弄明白他是谁,但是登成绩的时候还是时常忘了
你的孩子估计还是会用英文名字上学吧,中文姓又基本没什么区分度,把英文名字放
在middle name,老师很容易弄错,不推荐

p*****a 发帖数: 1435 | 14 some ppl go by middle name not because they don't like their first name. I
know a few who go by middle name, because their first name is the same as
their dad's. I think for any reason it is not convenient to use first name,
one can go by middle name. |
