I can see "Demi", and even how she pronounces it (de-MEE). It's short for Demetria (de-MEE-tree-uh). Now, if she really was Greek it would make perfect sense...

Why do we normally have three names? Why not more or less?

"I can see "Demi"

Do any other Freeper gals here remember "Little Women", when Meg had twins she named them Daisy and Demi-john, the hubby's name was John iirc, and called them just Daisy and Demi.

I guess this backs up what the other poster said about names starting to get wacky after the Civil War.
