LMAO!

Lizz doesn't equal Laurie.
I'm sorry, Dawn... it must suck when people get your name wrong!
Kristine does not equal Krista, Kristen, Christina ... there's an E at the end people!
Ive been wanting to get this off my chest for a while now ...
Jessica does NOT equal Jennifer. not even close.
LOL...that seriously made me LOL.
Better tell that to my Dad who sent JLK her first postcard.....dear Jessica! LOL
br
omg...lol!
LOL should i go from Lexi and Orions mommy to Fall Wind?
And while we're at it, Zoe does not now, nor did it ever, equal Lilly. How people get that is beyond me but it happens all the time!
LMAO
Kendall does not equal Candel, Ken Doll, Candoll, Kindle, Kindell, Kendra, or any such variation.
(though I have given up and tell people my name is Kendra at places like coffee shops because it always gets spelled horribly and then the person at the other end is left trying to pick up the pieces of my shattered name)

EJ is growing up too fast!
While I love all my friends named Michelle, the name is Melissa, not Michelle.
Suzanne does not equal Susan!
Once I got a message (hand written) from a coworker to call back someone named Susan. I said, "This is Suzanne, is Susan available?" or something like that, and she corrected me that her name was also Suzanne. I explained I hadn't been the one to hear her voicemail, and she said, "Oh I KNEW that, you'd NEVER do that to a fellow Suzanne!"
Let me jump on this.
Roxanne does not equal Roxy. I get why people would say it but really, if I wanted to be called Roxy, that's how I would have introduced myself.
I hate being called Roxy. Reminds me of a stripper every time.
And if your name is Roxy or you go by Roxy, this interpretation does not extend to you---just to me:)
Although my name is pretty "normal" my "for the record" post is as follows:
If you are under the age of 30, do not ask the question "have I ever heard of 90210". Yes - I've heard of it. Yes - I watched the ORIGINAL show in it's entirety as it was THE show to watch while I was in college. Yes - I do know that she graduated college. Yes - I do know that she was a virgin. And yes - my bridesmaids had a ball with the 90210 theme when I got married.
Do I think it's funny? No - not anymore. Do I ever want to hear it again? Definitely not.
And please remember - it's my married name. I've only been married for almost 6 years...that means that I had a different name before I got married.
TYVM.
This Stefanie gets Bethany and Tiffany allllllll the time
My college roommate, who I'd spoken to on the phone several times for a long time, and who didn't get any paperwork with my name on it b/c of a computer glitch (so I got her info and initially contacted her) thought I was Bethany up until she saw my name on our front door at the dorm
Ha! DH's grandma who is old and not always "there" has called me Melissa since she met me and my BIL Greg = Craig... When she's around we just fall in line and call each other our "other" names. LOL.
