I am plagued by "Anne"...and my husband's child with her is "Loretta" and they are in NY. The child was conceived in Arlington, Texas.<P>My husband and I each have an ugly old aunt named "Anne" and "Loretta" is not a moniker I would ever hang on a child, but both names are kind of pretty.<P>When Pizza Hut had that commercial on TV for the Big New Yorker pizza, I started referring to my husband's friend, Anne, as the Big New Yorker or the Big New Porker. Now we just call her the BNY. =^^= meow<P>I can't get away from NY or Texas references...they are EVERYWHERE!<P>Catnip =^^=

The OP has same name as mine, but he spells his Stephen. My W never calls me Steven, but has slipped several times. It caused a major blowout. I guess I'm just to sensitive about it. Oh...I take that back, my has always maintained that I'm not sensitive enough. Sorry!

I'm glad I'm not the only one who cringes every time I hear the OW name. I cant even type it - it makes me sick. I was going to take a weekend job and found I'd be working for a girl w/HER name. I actually passed it up because I couldnt stand to say that name.<BR> Magoskid
