We all have a first name and a last name, or family name. But for many of us, it doesn't stop there. 1. They mostly come from our real names.
Some of them are obvious (明显的): Tom is short for Thomas; Sam is short for Samuel. 2. Take the name William as an example. It can be shortened to Will, and also Bill. 3. During the Middle Ages, people liked to change letters to make names easier to pronounce. For example, a hard consonant (辅音) like Bis clearer than soft ones like W. Bill sounds much clearer than Will. Interestingly, the people of England even called King Wiliam III, who ruled in the 17th century, "King Billy".
Richard has also been a popular name in England for centuries. It was commonly shortened to Richand Rick to save time. 4. So Rick became Dick. This nickname became so popular that it included in an idiom. "Every Tom, Dick and Harry" means everybody!
5. England has had eight king Henrys. Yet most of them preferred to be called Harry. It is a tradition that continues today. The British Prince Harry's real name is Henry. I wonder if Harry Potter's real name is Henry.
A.We also have nicknames.
B.But how does Bill come from William?
C.The most popular name for English kings has been Henry.
D.Also, like the name William, people liked to make rhyming names.
E.Yet there are some nicknames whose origins are more mysterious.

Are you the first or the last child in your family? Or are you a middle or an only child? Some people think it matters where you were born in your family. But there are different ideas about what birth order means. Some people say that the eldest children are smart and strong-willed. They are very likely to be successful. The reason for this is simple. Parents have a lot of time for their first child; they give him or her a lot of attention. So this child is very likely to do well. An only child will succeed for the same reason. What happens to the other children in the family? Middle children don't get so much attention, so they don't feel that important. If a family has many children, the middle one sometimes gets lost in the crowd. The youngest child, though, often gets special treatment. He or she is the baby. Often this child grows up to be funny and charming. Do you believe these ideas about birth order too? A recent study saw things quite differently. The study found that first children believed in family rules. They didn't take many chances in their lives. They usually followed orders. Rules didn't mean as much to later children in the family. They went out and followed their own ideas. They took chances and they often did better in life.
