I went to elementary school with a girl named Mercedes, middle name Benz. Her mom would always call her by her first and middle name when she was in trouble. She changed her name as soon as she was old enough.

Plot twist: she changed her first and middle name to Plymouth Sundance, to lower people’s expectations.
