Middle names
Wouldn't it be nice to at least have it as an option? I'm thinking it could just an optional extra name box sandwiched between the first name and last name. Maybe you can even add multiple middle ...

Um can't you just type two names in the name bar?
1. There isn't always enough space.
2. Middle names aren't always a part of the first name. And not the last name either. It's a middle name and should be treated as such.
The game won't know the difference though. Even if we had the place for the middle name, the game would either not say the name or it would say it along with the rest of the name. And the latter can be done with just the first name bar. I can't think of a moment where the game would say or not say the middle name. It either say the first name or the first and last name. And if you hardly (or n)ever see the name in the game... is it really necessary?
I dunno what the character limit is but they could just expand the limit of it, would solve the problem. Maybe some modder has done it?
The game sometimes refers to sims by their "first name", or whatever's in the first name field. Having the middle name be a part of that seems silly, as it's not a real part of the first name. It's like a secret part of the name people won't know up-front. Maybe it would add an interaction where your sims could ask for the full name? And then it would show up in the relationship bar?
Like, I dunno about you, I'm just sensing some sort of culture clash here; everyone in my family irl happens to have a middle name, it's a fairly common thing where I live. So I'd just like to have it as an option.
