Mine's j.m.lawrence@

Can anyone enlighten us as to why some people have names and not initials? (Expects comments about "the size of your wang.")

Depends if you have a middle name or not, I'm guessing.

You're evil. You did that on purpose.

I'm gonna have that song in my head till I get into Durham on Sunday. I'll be singing it as I wander into my room as bemused Freshers look on at the freak doing hammering actions as he sings 'Maxwell Edison's silver hammer...'

Some people get initials and others get full names depending on other people with the same name. Expect a LOT of john.smith@'s so they have to give them j.x.smith@ or something like that. It purely depends on other people with the same name. :smile:

lol nah you won't be common, but there are a lot of international students from Asia who may have "chung" as their surname (not trying to generalise, it just sounds kinda Oriental! :smile:

) and if you have 2 middle names then they'll automatically put both of them down if you get an initials e-mail.

A friend of mine is T.P.W.______ (not giving away second name lol - bit mean to go telling everyone people's e-mails on a message board!!) :biggrin:
