Talking First Initial name

My Dad (who is 84) has, for as long as I remember, has used his first initial rather than his name -- His Dad and he sharedthe same first name but different second so Grandpa went by the name and Dad adopted his second name as his "given" name. Some of his stuff has First Initial Full second name;others have full first and second name.
He even changed the spelling of his second name at some point (don't know if it was just a "done" thing or if it was done "legally" through the courts (I don't think so)

Oh, and he ain't Italian -- Good old Scotch Irish.
