The next two, never used, are those of her godmothers (I think). The fourth name is the one she is known by. I quite like that name but I like one of the others more (Aurore).

Thats a nice middle name, mine is old fashioned and brought down through generations of the family.

I think it is becoming less and less done these days though.

I'm also called a name that bears no relation whatsoever to my real first name but am getting better at remembering to use the proper one on official stuff :o

So your real first is Rapunzel and not BoPeep????
