WE have a bit of a thing in my family to write initials instead of names - but the problem arises because in 9 grandkids there are three with exactly the same initials - it used to make Christmas interesting for them - was like a lucky dip!

This is sort of off topic but I was haing a conversation with someone the other day who is becoming obsessed with having the initials also spell out the name. So Zachary Andrew Clark would be Zac or James Ivan Murray is Jim and Rose Olivia Simone Evans

Not sure how I feel about it really - I suspect that it is trying to be a bit too clever - it cuts down the name choices a fair bit.
