That was certainly me as a boy.
Ah, well, in that case, no, I don’t think I’ve known any, not even in West Texas. Back there it was just first and middle used, no hyphens.

Thought of another: Key and Peele’s Keegan-Michael Key.
Tons as Franco-Canadians: Marc-Andre, Michel-Louis, Jean-Claude, Jean-Michel, Jean-Guy, Jean-Francois…
I know a John Paul, Brandon Jay (BJ for short) and Jean-Louis.
As a Catholic girl from a Catholic family, I know multiple Mary Graces, Mary Franceses, etc. None of them hyphenate, but they all go by both names.
Assuming we’re talking about hyphenated, just one, Mary-Beth, and she’s (obviously) a girl.
I work with a Caitlyn. Not sure if that counts though.
I dated two guys who were called Kenny Wayne, but I think that was the first and middle name, not a double first name.
I do have a female cousin named Bobbi-Anne.
I know a Jim Ed. Arkansas, natch.
As Poysin said, many many French Canadians have names like Jean-Guy and Jean-Francois. Even Jean-Marie. True story: Sometime around the end of the war a man named Jean-Marie applied to Princeton to do a graduate degree in mathematics. He got back a letter saying:
Dear Miss X:
We regret to inform you that Princeton does not admit women.
He did eventually get a PhD in math from McGill, I believe it was in 1951.
One, and he is male.
I knew a Terri-Lynn once. I can’t recall ever knowing a male who went by two names.
I met a woman named Anna-Keith once. Apparently her father died while Anna-Keith was in the womb so when she was born her mother appended her father’s name, Keith, to the name they’d chosen, Anna.
That’s certainly the oddest double-barrelled first name I’ve encountered.
