That reminds me...can't believe I didn't remember this earlier. There were so many Stevens in one school I went to that my brother lobbied for a full quarter to get everyone to call him by his middle name. So many Stevens and Steves and the only nickname no one had was Stevie, so everyone called him that and he HATED it (mostly because Mom's baby name for him was Stevie-love). He's been Michael ever since...because there was already a Mike and a Mikey around his age, so to keep him straight the teachers HAD to call him Michael.

In the first casino I worked in, we had:
Anne (Me, in kitchen, then Dealer)
Annie (waitress)
Anna-Marie (HR)
Ann (Pit boss/Dealer)
Anna (Dealer)
It was interesting when I was in the same pit as Ann. Luckily the dealers will usually call out "pit boss!" instead of by name so that cut down on confusion.
Right now, my name rhymes with my boss' name.Do radioactive cats have 18 half-lives?
