I'd say you have zero middle names, which many people read as the letter O. Will that help?

As an aside to this thread, what happens when all of the airport codes are used up ?

I calculate that there are a possible 17576 three letter codes (feel free to correct this number), I'm not sure how many airports there are worldwide but there's certainly several thousand.

Maybe they will add a number, or a fourth letter, or use a letter from another alphabet such as Thai or Korean. Or maybe we'll never have that many airports.
