How about, "i'm not the terrorist because that terrorist has a middle name"?

They spelled my middle name wrong (in a way that's comical to others but not me) on my birth certificate. I hate it.

Good point. In fact you can usually tell potential assassins because they all have middle names, like Lee Harvey Oswald and John Wilkes Booth.

I think I've forgotten my confirmation name, so I'm most certainly doomed. Joseph, maybe?

If a middle name is insisted, go Whoville... Cindy Lou, Betty Lou, etc.

I thought my sister and I were the only ones. I like it. I like my name to be short, which is why I always shorten to Zak, not extraneous c's hanging about.
