HelpRe: A Little Dilemma With Honour Names (Warning: long!)
in reply to a message by Delphi_Blue
Agreed. Most people I know (who go by their middle) did it by choice.
I call my dd Bituin a lot, but never really in public, so she knows she is Clarisse.
The only exception I would make to that is people who share the exact name as their fathers or mothers (Juniors, etc)... then a middle name might make sense if the first name only has one nickname or none.

Mama to my "bright star" Clarisse Bituin and Wife to Julius. Mahal na mahal from our little family to yours!
