What’s your middle name?
Some of our volunteers found out my middle name. I have been dubbed, “Christian” around the office. That’s me…Travis Christian Johnson.
In that whole initial conversation, I found out that Jesse has no middle name. His proper name is Jesus “no middle name” Santoyo. In fact, when I’m typing in MS Word about Jesus Christ, it always wants to auto-complete to Jesus Santoyo. That has gone to Jesse’s head.
Anyway, why don’t you come clean? What’s your middle name?


Very proud of my middle name. It was my maternal grandmother’s first name… Eileen.

You should change your name to Travis Ha Ha Johnson. Making fun of your wife on a public forum is funny huh?
Ela, I’m just gonna stick with Ela.
Comment by Kelly Johnson | July 9, 2008 |
Kelly I agree that’s why I only go by Ela L. Ortega. When I became a ciziten soooo many years ago I left all the other names by the waste basket. My sons don’t carry a middle name I was scared of given them any:)
Yes Trav a big DANG!!!!!!!
Comment by Ela | July 9, 2008 |
No need to tell you mine. I’ve been called by my middle name as much as you have Trav. In fact, it’s my fault thou hast been dubbed “Christian”. Yay me. =]

Trav,
I’ve known what your middle name is since nearly the very beginning of me knowing you. That’s why I suggested Christian (or Christopher) as your future son’s name (before you and Kelly decided on Blake – also a cool name).
Your Friend,
Christopher Marc Day

I almost named Blake “Wolf” Johnson…I also liked “Axel,” “Slash,” and “Slick.”

Good morning LUCY…LOL!!! Well if I were to go the latin route my name would be Rebecca Ann Martinsen Tejada Nieves. Multi ethnic, huh?
Its scary sometimes what names we give our children and why…Lisettes birthday was the other day, and we were discussing names. You have to ask HER what her original name was…everyone was laughing and asking me what drugs was I on!
Comment by Beckie | July 10, 2008 |
Ela, Marcela is doing well. She is at a campsite with no electricity to charge her phone, so I haven’t heard from her in two days. But each day she goes for 2-5 mile hikes, swims in a cold mountain lake, wakes up to a view of snow capped mountains, and and hand feeds a chipmunk she calls “Tiny”. She sent a picture. Last year she went to the same camp and named a chipmunk “Chubby” (I have pictures of that one too) but she says she can’t find it. Don’t ask me how she can tell them apart. All chipmunks look the same to me.
Kelly, that’s cheating!

If you could re-middle-name yourself, what would it be?
Comment by travjohnson | July 10, 2008 |
I think I might go with the Spanish version of Travis, making me “Travis Travieso Johnson.”
You?
Comment by travjohnson | July 10, 2008 |
Think I will give Ela Bella a try……..
Comment by Ela | July 10, 2008 |
Good thing I left this page yesterday, otherwise Trav and I might still be going at it. ;] Hm…If I could re-middle-name myself I’d pick…Christian. xD ((Blame Longtemps))
Comment by ritzcrackah | July 10, 2008 |
I think I could have gone with J. Thomas Johnson, but then my nick-name obsessed relatives would have called ‘Tommy’.
Hey! What if I switch to Thomas, now? Henceforth and forevermore, it’s Thomas for me. EVERYBODY DO YOU HEAR, THOMAS! Just kidding, J.T. carries on a long Southern tradition of initial names, like W.J. and R.P.
Comment by Ol' Atom-Splitter | July 11, 2008 |
Travis’ middle name keeps his maternal grandmother’s maiden name alive. Lacy Roberts (Anne’s mother) was a Christian before she married W.J. Roberts. Pop Roberts used to say that he always wanted to marry a Christian girl. He did in more than one way.
Comment by Ol' Atom-Splitter | July 11, 2008 |
‘J.T.’ is one of the coolest initial names of all-time. When you were the Lead Pastor of the HCOG did people refer to you as ‘Pastor John’, or ‘Pastor J.T.’ ?
Signed,
‘C.M.’
Comment by The Major | July 11, 2008 |
I wanted everybody refer to me as “The Reverend Doctor J.T. Johnson”, but somehow after they heard a sermon or two of mine it never would stick. Imagine that.
If someone wanted my instant attention they would call me, “Pastor”. If they were asking me out to the much maligned Golden Corral “Hey you” worked well.
Comment by Ol' Atom-Splitter | July 12, 2008 |
If I wanted to get super technical and go back as far as I know, my full name would be of Spanish soap opera-proportions: David Frank Darnall Guerra Del Blanco Esteban…the first.
