why do americans use all their names

[tonywojo]

including middle?

[withahip]

We are afraid we will forget one if they aren't always used.

[shadows on the trees]

Especially if the middle one happens to start with W. Those people are the worst.

[Mr. Brian]

including middle?

Example please?

[shadows on the trees]

I can't think of any who aren't actors and actors aren't real Americans.

[withahip]

Example please?

Billy Bob Thorton.

[shadows on the trees]

Billy Bob Thorton.

Now there's a real American, mm-hmm.

[Mr. Brian]

Billy Bob Thorton.

Billy is from Arkansas. I'm sure there are exceptions but that's more of a Southerner thing rather than a general American thing isn't it ? Like Lee Anne Rhimes or Mary Anne Summers, etc
Not that there is a relation but they do that with serial killers and infamous people too, like Lee Harvey Oswald, Mark David Chapman and John Wayne Gacy. I always thought thay did that to help out the unfortunate people named John Gacy or Mark Chapman, etc.

I think you're right there, Mr. Brian. Although it might serve as a warning to all of us never to give our chilluns the middle name Wayne.

Sarah Jessica Parker springs to mind with a whinny and a stomp of her hoof.

Georg W Bush has a father with the same name so the W.

with a hip is British.

I don't know who you are stalking on facebook.

That's obviously to distinguish himself from his father.

I was joking about Billy Bob.

Movie stars will have three names if someone in the Actors' Guild already has the first and last name.

With a hip's father is with THE hip.
