I never stopped using my true middle initial of 'J'; although if I had after my first marriage my initials would have been APE. I used AJE.
The 'J' was given by my parents as a blend of my dad's sister 'Jane' and my mom's sister 'Velma'. My middle name is Javelle, which I always hated, but now not-so-much - especially since they are both gone now.
