[Facts] Re: Why Middle Names?
in reply to a message by Mary
i think its the same reason phone numbers have 9 digits, so that its not likely for more then one person to have the same Full name, i know of a major league base ball player with the same first and last name as my brother, and ive met someone with the same first and last name as me. w/o middle names that could really screw up the social security office and stuff.
