7 Struggles Only People Who Go By Their Middle Name Will Understand

RE: BUZZFEED APPLICATION Be afraid of the firsts, be very afraid.

1. The first day of school is a total nightmare:

Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer

Roll call is especially frustrating.

2. When you make new friends, you have a lot of explaining to do:

Paramount Pictures

Not the dreaded “(Insert middle name) isn’t your REAL name?” and "Do you not like being called (insert first name)?" convos.

3. Don’t even get me started on doctor and dentist appointments:

Fox

Cue the identity crisis in the waiting room.

4. And the DMV...face palm:

Disney

“I don’t relate to the name on my driver’s license.”

5. The Bank...please, anything but:

Paramount Pictures

The teller is always so perplexed.

6. Traveling is just disastrous:

Paramount Pictures

"Is this really me on my passport?"

7. New jobs can lead to major confusion.

Columbia Pictures

With onboarding comes detailing of your weird name situation.
