Anyone knowing/guessing what my middle name is

(I don't mind it now, it's not the most euphonious or modern name but it was a family tradition and hey, it's only a middle name)

a passing spacecadet, Tuesday, 11 October 2016 17:25 (nine years ago)

Oh god yes. I was v lucky my middle name was my middle name not my first name, as it is Adrian, and I was geeky-looking, and it was the 80s. Luckily I kept that pretty quiet. I guess I can thank my dad for that one (my mum wanted to call me Adrian apparently).

Just noise and screaming and no musical value at all. (Colonel Poo), Tuesday, 11 October 2016 17:27 (nine years ago)

Old childhood friends that include my middle name on group invitations to fantasy football.
