How lame is it that neither of us followed through and chose middle-names? My wife is from a country/culture where EVERYBODY has a given name and a formal "nickname" with which they are associated for the rest our our lives. Perhaps coincidentally, my wife is one of the only people from her country that any of us has ever met that doesn't have a formal nickname. She's always gone by her complete first name.
