From: Bong Manayon
Usually we are given really formal sounding names in our birth
certificate ("my name is Miguel Edward Z. Rodriguez, but you can call
me 'Boy' for short...") but its rare that we move through life with it
except to sign some formal or legal documents.  We usually are known
here for our cutesy nicknames which essentially should be our real
names anyway...

I do know someone from back where I grew up whose given name on his birth certificate is "Boy", and that's the name he's always gone by.

That's what the hospital fills in on the form until the parents decide on a name. Apparently his parents never did.
