[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i find the southern tradition of 2 first names quite pretentious and frankly, annoying. Mary Beth Sarah Jane Margaret Rose[/quote] Look, I've got 5 cousins named "Jimmy/Jimmie Something" (Jimmy Ray, Jimmy Joseph, Jimmy Lee, Jimmie Lynn, Jimmie Anne, and Jimmy Dale) and 2 cousins named "Ronnie Something." (Ronnie Joe and Ronnie Dale) Plus, my oldest brother and all of the oldest male cousins are named after their fathers. (Ie. my dad is "John Preston" and my brother is "John Donald." We have to use both their first name and middle name, or we're never going to keep them all straight.[/quote] what about when there is only 1 mary, sarah, and margaret in a family? why then do they have to use both first and middle?[/quote] Culture? Tradition? Because Great-Grandma was named "Sarah," too? So sorry that everyone can't be as enlightened and educated as folks in the Northeast. [/quote]
