[quote=Anonymous] [quote] My point exactly. You don't do it, and people will say things like, "isn't your middle name actually ________?" And then, the poor kid will not even understand the question. Meanwhile, they sound like a country bumpkin (aka "Larla Liz.") Why do this to your kid? I figure anyone who picks a classic name like Natalie for a first name is looking for a classic middle name. Exactly NOT your point. The PP is saying that nobody named Larla Elizabeth will introduce themselves as Larla Liz. Therefore, if Larla Liz's name is Larla Liz, people will assume that Larla's middle name is Liz. Real life example: I know somebody who goes by Mary Beth Lastname. And her name, in fact, is Mary Beth Lastname. Her name is not Mary Elizabeth Lastname, [b]and I can't imagine that anybody thinks her name is Mary Elizabeth Lastname[/b], even though yes, everybody knows that Beth is a nickname for Elizabeth. [/quote] You are so wrong about this. Mary Beth is a very Midwestern nickname for Mary Elizabeth. Anyone from the Midwest would recognize this one. And don't presume to tell me what my own point is...you don't even know me. [/quote]
