Sorry if repeats:

Jack Burton (Big Trouble in Little China).
John Rambo
John Anderton (Minority Report)
John Smith (Mr. & Mrs. Smith)
John "Doc" Holliday
John Shaft

Do middle names count?
Long John Silver?

Most of them I can think of I think I spotted above.

Just for the sake of education, "Long" wasn't John's first name. :)

Just for the sake of education "Little" wasn't John's first name and "Prince" wasn't John's first name either. ;)

Technically true "Long" isn't his first name but didn't know if we were allowed to use character/nick names, etc. and he did allow "stretches" into other genres. Hence the question. :)

But John WAS their first name, just like John was Long John Silver's first name. Long was just a nickname and said that John was a middle name, that's all I was pointing out--John was not his middle name. :)

True but not how you listed them. I am still waiting to hear it's allowed. There are probably more out there if that is the case.

I'm confused. What is allowed? He's called Long John, but his name is still John. :)

You seemed to be indicating what I put down shouldn't count after pointing out the obvious? :shrug: Pretty sure basically everyone knows his real first name wasn't "Long".

No our exchange was only about what you said about John being his middle name. It was as not-serious as an exchange could possibly be.

I was obviously referring to character name not “birth name”. You took it a tad literal but I digress. [emoji6]
