Boy, Marley. I can't believe you started a thread demanding that people reveal their middle names. Isn't that obtrusive???

As for me, it's the same as my dad's and granddad's, Philip. Except that my grandfather was baptized Phillip, so I don't know if I was actually a III all my life or only a Jr. Hmmm.....

I was not and am not asking for that information, but this thread had taken on a life of its own. 100 replies to a casual, Friday afternoon post is pretty impressive!

My middle name is Michelle after the Beatles song. It won the Grammy for best song the year I was born, I think.

Hubby's middle name is Paul. Paul McCartney wrote Michelle, ma belle.

Both my kids middle names come from the last names of two of our favorite people.

Michael after the chairman of the theatre dept at Indiana Univ. where I got my MFA. And his wife, Bankert, my speech coach and dear friend.

Isaac Michael and Ivy Bankert

PSM Says "My parents didn't give me a middle name. They figured that I would just use my maiden name as my middle name when I got married and I did."

I could've sworn it was Soccer???

Mine is Joel, as in Billy Joel. Although I was named after my Grandpa Joseph. Go figure.

100 posts is 100 posts - no one said they all had to be on-topic, did they?

My doctor's middle name is Lynn, and that's what he goes by. All I know of his first name is that it starts with M, and I'm guessing it's something as unpronounceable and Japanese as his last name...

I'm still not telling my middle name, but I'll tell you about my brother's. He was named after our grandfathers, so his first name is Clifford, and his middle name is Odell. His initials are C.O.W.

When you're 5, things like this are hysterical.

The good old days were when me and mini would answer each other under a different MM each time. Hell, that's how half of our MM's came into being.... Of course, now mini's become an MM slacker....

And when Eyegor would join us..... it was a veritable Bored Par-tay.....

And christie would throw us bait. And Marley would get all confused and we'd do our best to make him more confused. And Rexer and MrK would break out the MM....

Ah, the good ol' days.....

Miss those good old days

You had a lot of victims, but not as many victims as Kenneth Wayne Jennings III had.

Regardless of what the score of Jennings' wins were, the fact is that no one died.

For whoever is keeping score, my middle name is also Lynn.

Ellyn Lynn? I hear an echo!

We need to get a secret handshake or something.

When I was in second grade, everyone sat around comparing nicknames. I was left out because I didn't have one.

The coolest group of girls had Lynn as a middle name, so I decided that I wanted Lynn as my middle name too. I started writing it on all of my papers. Julie Lynn doesn't sound so great, neither does Julianna Lynn.

My mom found out that I had "borrowed" a middle name, and told me that I couldn't use it.

It's funny that so many of you that I like on the bored have Lynn as a middle name.

But you don't need to call me Placentia Lynn Soccer Mom.

I never really liked my first name, so maybe that is why I am happy to be christie here on the bored. But I never thought to be called Anne instead.

I wanted to be Patricia.

Hmmmmmm

The recent turn of the thread is very funny. My given middle name is..........

You guessed it, Lynn! But it was just kind of placeholder until I got a confirmation name (it's an IRC thing, you wouldn't understand.).
