We only know three middle names in Buffy.

Buffy Anne Summers
Alexander LeValle Harris
Alan Francis Doyle

Hmm.

Nope. We're last nameless on her.

And Angel, come to think of it.

Spike, too.

Yeah, but I figure vamps don't count. Darla, Dru - we don't know the last name of any vamp. Harmony's, yes, but we knew her before.

It might be intentional - vamping is all about discarding your old self (See: The Bloody, William) and rejecting your old roots and affiliations. A family name ties you very firmly to a human history. That's its function.

Good point.
