I am also a believer that a true double name is two words for the technical first name. My daughter's first name is the double name and she has a separate middle name. Of course, I also have a hang up about calling kids by the first name you gave them. If you really love that name enough that you want to call them by it, then make it their first name
. I understand why people do it sometimes, but it's my hang up for my own kids.
