@Aris_Athanas,
I suspect you already know Wednesday Friday Addams is her full name, although it is probably best to keep it as Wednesday Addams.
Morticia Addams was exceptionally efficient. She never had to worry about household chores, planting night-blooming cereus in the garden, or polishing the ancestral guillotines. Every single ghastly task she needed to complete was always done by Wednesday.
This is a variant of the old joke:
Robinson Crusoe was a marvel of efficiency. Every single thing he needed to do—whether it was building a new hut, mending his sails, or collecting coconuts—was always done by Friday.
I didn't know her full name is Wednesday Friday Addams, I just check it out in Wikipedia. It is never mentioned in Tim Burtons version. I dont remember if it was mentioned in the 90s movies its been years since I saw them. It surely mentioned in the old series.
@Aris_Athanas,
"In the original television series, "The Addams Family," her middle name is 'Friday'."
The middle name "Friday" is acknowledged in the Netflix series, "Wednesday," through dialogue in the first episode, "Wednesday's Child Is Full of Woe" (Season 1, Episode 1).
Although the characters do not explicitly say the full name "Wednesday Friday Addams" out loud in a single line of dialogue, the following exchange confirms "Friday" as her middle name and the reason for it:
When Principal Weems discusses Wednesday's name, the conversation establishes both her first name and her birth date:
Principal Weems: "Wednesday is certainly a unique name. I'm guessing it was the day you were born?"
Wednesday: "I was born on Friday the 13th."
Morticia: "Her name comes from a line from my favorite nursery rhyme: 'Wednesday’s child is full of woe.'"
The fact that the show retains her middle name as Friday is based on the combination of the original series' canon (where her middle name is "Friday") and this dialogue establishing her birth date as Friday the 13th. The show uses the established canon and provides an in-universe justification for the middle name.
@Aris_Athanas,
For your consideration:

In a not so distant future, where overpopulation and famine have forced governments to undertake a drastic One-Child Policy, seven identical sisters (all of them portrayed by Noomi Rapace) live a hide-and-seek existence pursued by the Child Allocation Bureau. The Bureau, directed by the fierce Nicolette Cayman (Glenn Close), enforces a strict family-planning agenda that the sisters outwit by taking turns assuming the identity of one person: Karen Settman. Taught by their grandfather (Willem Dafoe) who raised and named them - Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday - each can go outside once a week as their common identity, but are only free to be themselves in the prison of their own apartment. That is until, one day, Monday does not come home.

Also, I suggest moving January Jones and August Maturo down with the rest of the non-characters (options 24-33) and moving June Cleaver (currently option 30) up with the characters. That way there is less of a chance for confusion about who's fictional and who's not.
