Don't forget John Wayne's real first name was "Marion" - nothing "chickish" there

No, just freakin' weird, is all. About J.W.'s parents...
His mother's name was "Mary" -- maybe that's what influenced the choice of "Marion".
His father's name was "Robert" -- and that's the middle name which they gave to the kid who later became John Wayne.
"Marion Robert Morrison" was John Wayne's original name. EXCEPT...
His parents then had another baby boy, which they decided to name after Daddy this time.
So, they then felt a need to change Marion Robert Morrison's name to "Marion Michael Morrison", so as not to overuse the name of "Robert".
So the second-born son gets named after Daddy, while the first-born son is stripped of Daddy's first name as his middle name and continues to wear a version of Mommy's name for his first name instead. Kinda like a drag-name.
Is this a recipe for a screwed-up kid or WHAT?

Yeah, but then the collection of recipes for screwed-up kids runs to about twenty volumes...
