For various reasons, I'm seriously considering changing my middle name. Not legally, since the only place it appears in full is my birth certificate (Although I don't have my long-form birth certificate, so who knows if it's right or even if I was born at all? 🤔
Anyway, all other official documents have just “M.”.
So, I can go wild & unilaterally declare the M now stands for something else.
But, I can't think of anything cool… best I came up with is that it's just “M” period. Ideas welcome.

I've been looking to change my middle name, but to one still starting with ‘M’. I decided:"Maximiliano".
I know it seems a haughty choice—but HMO:
I was reviewing my high school papers & remembered in Spanish class, my 1ˢᵗ teacher gave everyone a name of Spanish origin (eg, “John” ⇒ “Juan”).
She (apparently) couldn't think of a Latin-origin equiv. to “Bradley” & said
> «Tu será Maximilano»I stopped using it when I graduated HS, but — just like The Big Lebowski — “it fits right in there”.

I seen London, & I seen France, but I never seen no queen in her damned undies, & I definitely I seen stupifying stuff in Los Ange-ales …
& I'm a hard working man. Possibly the hardest working man who ever lived in Boston, NYC, then Portland …which would put me in the running for hardest working man worldwide.But, sometimes there's a guy — and I'm talking about myself,Bradley Maximiliano Kuhn, here — who is just the right person for his time &place. I just fit right in here.
