It is, actually. Geri. Not Geraldine, or anything else. But the bank's lawyer didn't know that, or what name my ID showed.
I went with Geri F. Sullivan rather than Geri Fitzgerald Sullivan. The Fitzgerald is already there, in the Geri. It's where my first name came from, back in high school, when I changed from the name on my birth certificate to going by Geri instead. Made it legal long enough ago that the mortgage folks didn't ask to see the name change paperwork.
