[Opinions] Re: Kimberly on a boy
in reply to a message by Chelsea
I've heard a lot of people say that kids don't know other kids' middle names but I knew most of my classmates. I don't think it was just because I was a name nerd at a young age, I assume they were on some list or read out by the teachers at some stage. I remember a couple of boys with the middle name Lindsay and Nelson who got a bit of teasing from the rest of the class (for all of about five minutes). I suppose they may have voluntarily shared that info and that's how it got round but I think our full names were mentioned at some point.

I only ever knew my classmates names if I asked them. Which I did frequently because I always wanted to know! But it always bothered me when they would refuse to tell you their middle name because it embarrassed them. That meant it was something interesting and not the usual!
