Quick story...
So this guy at work has been calling me Mary Jane lately. I guess it makes sense, since there's a gal in my office named Jane. However, it'd been kind of bothering me (I get called Mary Ann, Mary Lou, Mary... you name it all the time). Yesterday, said guy at work & I were at the copier at the same time. Our dialogue went like this:
Me: Good morning, Tim!
Tim: Morning, Mary Jane!
Me: Actually, it's Marybeth.
Tim: Oh, I'm so sorry! What was I calling you?
Me: Mary Jane.
Tim: Ah... That's probably becuase you work with a Jane.
Me: Yeah, it happens all the time. Don't worry about it.
... 5 minutes later... (as I'm leaving the copier area)
Me: See ya, Tim.
Tim: Later, Mary Ellen.
Sigh. :)

That's probably because your aunt's name is Mary Ellen. lol Call him Tom next time and see what his response is. Sorry about that. I named you. I take full blame. I still like your name, Marybeth, and still love your great grandmother for whom you were named.

Keep up the good work.
