That's not true. The Irish don't have middle names because they can't

afford them. They used to have them but the English stole them all in the 1750's and sold to the Spanish shortly after. Greedy as the Spanish were, rather than give back the surplus they took 2 and sometimes 3 or 4 each.

If you go to County Mayo there is a monument to them.
