Cameron Rana-Jerome's middle name is Zishan and I wonder if Stephen McPhail's middle names of John Paul provide a clue as to the religious leanings of his parents?

ALF's real name is Glenville if that helps?
Out of interest, how many people on here go by their middle name? It seems quite common in South Wales, and a few Welsh colleagues of mine (in ENgland) do it too. Is it a Welsh thing? (Not that ALF was welsh of course)

The best thing about this is that despite having eleven perfectly fine first names to choose from he is known by a different one, not even on his birth certificate.

One of my best friends in school was Marc.
When we left school to start our careers he was actually Thomas.
This has to be a valley thing

My dad's name was William Robert - but always known as "Bob"
This caused some problems for me in my teens - he kept opening my letters, even speaking a few minutes on the phone before realising the person he didn't know wanted to talk to me.
:facepalm:
Not realising how phones and online stuff would develop, all my kids had names that couldn't be confused with mine (or my mrs)

My best mate, who sits by me down the City has the Christian names Michael Humphrey, sadly he goes by the name of Michael.
