ArchivesMiddle Names
Hello! Well, I didn't know in which board to post this, I hope it's the right one.
I subscribed in this site very recently and I noticed that many users have quite an obsession with middle names. I come from Greece, where people do sometimes have a second name, but either they never use it, or they might make a combination (such as: Maria+Anna=Marianna). In some occasions, they might choose to use their second name, or, rarely, even both. But generally, the second name doesn't play an important role.
But is this different in other countries? I mean, a name that you hardly ever use, does it really matter? Do you actually ever use your middle names, or is it just for the sake of the name?
Thank you. :)
