What could possibly go wrong?Javier Johns requests to post the middle name she's always wanted on social media, but she might now be Javier JASON

Marge would absolutely love her to be my middle name after my friend's mother, who has cancer,' she said. However, I love Summer, but to be honest, any middle name would do, but I am just eager to see it on all of my papers.'
"It started off as a bit of amusement in the office, but it has since evolved to something that a lot of people are becoming involved with.'
Each of us is affected by cancer, which is why we try to do as much fundraising for MacMillan as we can, but we have never done anything like this.'
