Re: Sandra or Cassandra?
You live in a different country, but here in the US, on forms that ask for my "full name", the middle name is usually optional. I rarely bother to include it, unless the form *specifically* asks for my full middle name. So my point is, you may have to write it all out less than you think. :)

Yes it is kind of like that here too, but that is also a reason I don't like to have it there.. I don't even like it, think it is annoying and it is really no point to have that specific surname as a middlesurname. Although it is my mothers name, it doesn't really feel like me, because thousands of others have the same surname. I don't feel that it connect me to my mother as it should.. If I had a shorter second name as a middlename, that could be from my mothers firstname, it would feel much more personal, and maybe it wouldn't feel that annoying anymore.
