I think the Saint Name thing is pretty common for catholics across the board, however I do know catholics that have a "real" middle name and a sainted one, but don't list the sainted name as a middle name, and vice versa

For Bavarian-German Catholics, your child's middle name is the name of thier godparent- so we have middle names from baptism on and then you add a second middle name when you have your confirmation.

(unless of course your first name is similar to your godparent's name, then you don't have a middle name- for example my Mother's name is Annelies, her godmother is Anne. so she doens't have a middle name since Anne is already part of her first name).

I figured as much but then I wondered. I just found it interesting the possibility that your non fraternity brother was and you were not.
