FWIW, Bruce Sundlun was born Bruce G. Sundlun but upon running for governor of Rhode Island, had his name changed to remove the middle initial. He removed the initial out of frustration with how his name was appearing in local newspapers. Having changed his name, he promptly visited the offending newspaper with documentation from the judge regarding the change. I don't have a source for this, just overheard him retelling the story on a recent visit to Middleburg, VA. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.155.231.126 (talk) 15:19, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
