Actually the term second was only used in the past because they though Senior and Junior was improper. Now, we use Senior, then Junior and after that it's third, fourth and so on.

Biaggio. Antonio Biaggio Ferrari. Viva Italia!

It translates into "Blaise" in English. My middle name was the same as my father's first name.


You have any Italian in you? You want some?

I had a buddy who absolutely hated his first name. Even when he got married, the minister referred to him as "J. David..." (first initial & middle name) during the ceremony. I believe it came as a shock to many of the people in attendance that David was actually his middle name.

He just felt his first name was too common. [/b]
Similar story. I had a friend named Manny. Because he was Manny the 3rd, his family called him Dee-Dee (don't ask me why). When he met his bride, he had been toying with changing his name to Eric (with a different last name too) So her family knew him as Eric. It was a little bit confusing at the reception.[/b]
Mine is just simple. I grew up with another of my first name and we both used our middle names so we would know which one of us was being yelled at by our respective mothers. laugh

I really don't have anything against it, just don't like it. Heck, one of my favorite posters and best buddy from Down Under has the same first name.

Don't tempt me. I once thought of changing my name to Garth Ranzz, to have something different. But my little brother and I are the last of the Sharritts (or Sharit as my grandfather spelled it).

Bryce, the Welsh version of the Scottish "Bruce", meaning ruddy.

Me last name is Rumsey, the Welsh version of the Scottish "Ramsey", a place name meaning Ram's Isle.

Me first name is Shannon, the Irish version of the Scottish "Shane", meaning strength and courage or "old, wise one" depending on whom you believe; also an Irish place name.

Of course, Alfred Pennyworth is easily the coolest character in the entire Batman mythos*, so sharing his name is kind of cool!


*Seriously, everyone always focuses on the incredible stuff Batman does, but the really extraordinary thing is how this one guy manages to keep Stately Wayne Manor running all by himself! I would think it would require at minimum a staff of half a dozen! Plus he's always out rescuing Batman when he's injured and stuff!

Alfred is a cool character, made even more so by Michael Caine.

Lynn.

I actually like it better than my first name, but never got into that thing where you use your first name's first initial, then the middle name in full. I always figured the people who did that genuinely hated their first names. I don't hate mine, but it is ridiculously common.
