I remember my mom (born in 1912) telling me she was not given a middle name and took her confirmation name as her middle name.
|
first name (and I'm named after my Father, no kidding)
|
first name, which I dislike and love my middle name.
|
First because my parents did not give me a middle name
|
Back in Dallas, I go by my first name. My husband calls me by my middle name which is what I go by in the Austin area.
The only one to call me by my full name was my aunt, it didn't matter if I was in trouble or not, she called me by my full name! |
First name Linda and like SuziC Linda Fay when I was young and in trouble with my Mom.

And these people vote!! Jan in VA :-D |
I guess mine would be a combo - I have always been Maribeth, but my given name is Mary Elizabeth and I will never answer to that because I assume I am in trouble if you are calling me that.:-D
My mother spelled my name with an 'i' so I wouldn't be mistaken for a southerner, kind of silly for a gal known around Boston, Mass. as Dixie :-) and I told her a long time ago, that if she didn't want me to be southern she shouldn't have moved to the south. |
First name Kathy or KAthleen,sometimes my parents would call my by my middle name Shawn or both if they were angry
|
first name....both if i was in trouble lol
