I've been thinking of switching to my middle name.

My first name is Jonathan..which is alright, but it always gets shortened to John which I think is a terribly dull name.

My middle name is Eli, which is kinda neat and alot more unique, it's also nice and short so it won't get shortened. So I've been thinking of switching.


Cool . . . do you mind if we just call you " 'Lie "?





:D



Anyway, I don't but I used to (in grade school). My first name - Mark - it's short enough.

I'm sorry :( Don't be sad. I was just teasing you. It's a fine spelling.

:) :)

I'm just a jerk and say mean things all the time. You shouldn't take it personally I don't mean it.

How come you don't like Kathryn?

One of my best friends goes by his middle name, "Chuka" (pronounced chew-kah)
Much more interesting than his first name, "Christopher" :)

I don't go by my middle name at all. I go by my first name or nickname. Either one is fine.
