Ok aFrenchie, I'm intruiged! Here in the USA, there are people with no middle name at all. It is still far more common to have one, but it is not considered super unusual not to, and it certainly isn't legally required. It hadn't occured to me that it would be required by law.
Would it be unusual, than, for Jeremy to have used his middle name on their marriage certificate? Typically in the US, marriage invitations, programs, and certificates are one of the only places where people ALWAYS put their full name. I've never attended a wedding where that didn't happen (though I've never been a Vegas wedding). I do not know the French tradition. Thanks for the information, I'm fascinated now!

What drives someone to fly half-way around of the world to get married at the worst of all places to get married in the world. I don't get it.
Flight: 3, maybe 4 thousand dollars? (CDN) Vegas marriage: 50 bucks?

I don't know what reputation Las Vegas has in France, though it is most certainly a destination for travellers from around the world. It has bad sides, and good sides. It is, without a doubt, impressive. I'm a city boy, and am used to the streets of New York, Boston, and Shang-Hai, but I must admit even I was impressed by some parts of the strip. As for the cost, I've no idea what kind of money Alizée made from her albums, tour, and marketing. Suffice to say, if the everything she made in her whole career was equal to even 10% of what somebody like Britney Spears made in a single year, she should never have money problems again, and the cost of a flight to Vegas would be nothing.

I have two first names - redneck style, but only people that have known me a long time get to know it, those are the friends I know I can rely on. I feel so powerless when someone calls me by full name though, that's why only girls I've known a long time, girls I've dated, on rare occasions my buddies' girlfriends that I respect and love too because they are faithful enough that I can trust them with my best of friends, my older sisters, or my mom get to call me it
 . It's mega flattering and cute as hell when I come across a girl that remembers, like the ones I grew up with in school but hadn't talked to in years, not the I trash myself hanging around more and more lately.*shivers* I love it when those girls call me that

Here's an official article of laws at legifrance.gouv.fr about given names: http://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/WAspad...=CCIVIL&art=57 As you can see, they're talking everywhere about "les prénoms" (plural) that parents have to give to their new child. You can see singular only in the last paragraph because it's about when one first name (one of them) isn't standard, etc... They don't talk about the two middle names I was talking about but in this phrase, it quite obvious: "Lorsque ces prénoms ou l'un d'eux, seul ou associé aux autres prénoms ou au nom, lui paraissent contraires à l'intérêt de l'enfant ...." "When those forenames or one of them, alone or connected with other forenames or with the last name, sound against the child's interest ...." The bold "s" proves that there are (well, at least) three forenames in all indeed. Shorter: "one (1) forename connected with other forenames (+ 2 at least)" (I hope my lame explanations make sense!  )Quote:

This in unconfirmed, but I read somewhere that one of her middle names was Ann (not sure of spelling). And I remember reading somewhere else that one of her grandmothers who recently passed away was also named Ann (spelling?), where the name Annily was supposed to come from. Or was that the false information you were talking about RMJ?

And, we don't even know if they took this trip with the intention of getting married. Maybe they did, or maybe they just wanted to check out Vegas and decided to do this for fun once they got there. Not including the full names could suggest that they didn't take it too seriously at the time. Last edited by Ben; 11-09-2006 at 08:53 AM..
