If your last name was MAGGART would you give your child the middle name of a fruit ?

[alexmacpherson.livejournal.com]

haha yah i just noticed "Nelly Furtado - Nelly Kim Furtado" ie so you are saying her name = her name!

and one would think that a site so devoted to accuracy would manage to spell things right, eg MISSY ELLIOTT WITH TWO TS

[dubdobdee.livejournal.com]

fruits don't have middle names!

[braisedbywolves.livejournal.com]

50% of these seem to be just 'people be having middle names' - though OMG Avril Ramona Lavigne!

[dubdobdee.livejournal.com]

to be fair i think some of the ppl are here bcz while you MIGHT IMAGINE their amusing names are madey-uppy they're actually not viz frank zappa

[dubdobdee.livejournal.com]

unless you count fur in "pink fur apple" (which is a v. nice blobbly little potato)

Ashanti

[blue-russian.livejournal.com]

She goes by "Ashanti," but her nickname is "Shani Bani" lol

[jeff-worrell.livejournal.com]

no Moon Unit Zappa tho' I notice!

haha "Marc Bolan (T-Rex) = Marc FeldMichael Bolton"

[bengraham.livejournal.com]

I think Ramona's quite a decent middle name. As is Geraldine Estelle Halliwell.

Dudes my werk database has a complete list of EVERYONE who has ever released an song in the UK, middle names, inside leg measurements & all. Go on, ask me anything.

I didn't know Lou Christie was Italian, either. Or Perry Como. I always thought it was short for Peregrine or something.

Pimp my name

Xzibit (rapper) - Alvin Nathaniel Joiner IV

You've officially been pimped, Alvin.

Her sister is Maude, but I have no idea what her middle name is.

I am a corny racist FuXoR: I find that kind of endearing, but will be laughing all night at:
Black Francis (Pixies) - Charles Michael Kittridge Thompson IV

Re: Pimp my name

[strange-powers.livejournal.com]

I knew that one as a long-time Pixies fan, and agree it is funnier. I think it's the Kittridge.

What's this about the racists now?

Re: Pimp my name

[braisedbywolves.livejournal.com]

Oh just that I'm projecting Pride and Struggle onto Xzibit's lineage, and being a bit of a posh twit onto Francis's. Though the four names aren't helping the latter.

[strange-powers.livejournal.com]

I was wondering about posh rock stars, and I can't think of that many. Looking at Wikipedia, it says that Frank aka CMKT4's father owned a bar, but that his stepfather "pursued real estate on both coasts" !!!

The "posh rock stars/pop stars": sidebar is one I've done many times, although I've probably forgotten them all. Your standards: Chris DeBurgh, Gram Parsons, Justine Frischmann (although you might argue that Holocaust survivor/top structural engineer makes her dad more interesting than the average millionaire), Dido, Sean Paul, Marianne Faithful, Charlie Busted... There are some better ones, I think, but they don't spring to mind.
