My parents gave me a middle name in case I didn't like my first name, but I don't like my middle name so I never use it

I have two middle names. As far as I know everyone over here has the names of a godfather and grandparent on their passport/identity card, but nobody ever uses them.

My name would be Olivier Paul Homer

**casinobonusa** · 08-11-2007, 04:13 PM

Mine is James, after my maternal grandfather.

I occasionally tell people to call me James, and they never do.

I've had more luck telling people to call me Peter.

Owen doesn't mean lamb.

**Âåðåùàãèí** · 08-11-2007, 06:36 PM

Except in the sense that Ewan means a female sheep in English.

Mine is after my Deutche ancestors and no...it aint Schweiner-Hunt

**pipitous** · 08-11-2007, 11:43 PM

Hmm.... well 'lamb' wasn't the only possible meaning... but given my welsh ancestry I thought it was the most likely origin. http://www.behindthename.com/php/sea...owen&submit=Go

In Welsh that means that when you grow up, you'd be raped mercilessly ... and In Australia I'll get eaten for sunday lunch.

**Misespimb** · 08-12-2007, 02:11 AM

Once I meet this guy in a bar that had for some reason been to a wedding where the bride was of some Habsburg line or the like. A lot of middle names. He said he was impressed that the priest cold remember them all. Hell, he would have been impressed if she remembered them all.
