Why do so many murderers use middle names?

The neo-Nazi terrorist in Wisconsin was known as Wade Michael Page.  Other well-known examples include John Wilkes Booth (Lincoln), Lee Harvey Oswald (Kennedy), John Wayne Gacy (multiple), Jared Lee Loughner (Gabrielle Giffords), James Earl Ray (MLK), Mark David Chapman (John Lennon), and others.

A column at Slate ponders this question and concludes that it is a coincidence.

Addendum:  see the link in the comment by Onna B. re the frequency of "Wayne" as a middle name of murderers.
