My first name is well known, of course: Johannes. But my second isn't: Zacheüs (Zachaeus).

I guessed your third name: Thaddeus, right?:)

     I'm pretty sure it's William. The other is my middle name.

     I'm just glad it wasn't Tiberius Claudius Nero Germanicus Ernie.

Sounds painful.

I can assure you, it was very painful for the ones I conquered.

I found much amusement reading the rest of this thread. :D


Concerning matters nominal, I very recently was astonished to be "accosted" about my last name, when I went to Blackwell's to pick up a book I'd ordered. "Lover of truth!", announced the Blackwell employee, almost frowning, and looking at the book I'd ordered before adding: "Of course, what else could one with such a name be possibly occupied with, than philosophy?"

So someone (very) apparently knew his Greek. ;D
