If you've crossed out every second letter, how did you get from 'Tommy' to 'omy'?

Wouldn't be 'om' or 'Tmy' instead?

no i mean like start with t and end with y and i have just given you a clue....

I agree with justlooking. If you cross out letters starting with the first one, then you'd go from Tommy to om. If you started crossing out at the second one then you'd get Tmy.

I'm not sure what your last name could be, but I know that it fits McGa?g?e?.

McCague? Ive heard of a bowler called Martin McCague who used to play for Kent.

As a random guess I pick McGaughen, because you said your second name is 'strange'.

Jane, it could be McCague, but that doesn't fit the pattern ...

Neither does omy. Im just going by lightnings strange logic.
