Subject: RE: Introducing myself again! Don't worry about it...there's this mark on my birth certificate that makes my first and second name look hyphenated.
Katie Joanne become Katie-Joanne
Growing up my friends thought it was very funny the first day of school when the teacher would always be looking for Katie-Joanne Lee. The nickname Katie-Jo came quickly...it doesn’t help that I'm from Calgary, Alberta (Calgary = Cow Town ) either!
If I'm not getting Katie-Jo it's Katie-Lee. Quite often people mistake my last name as part of my first...in fact, a girl I played soccer with for 4 years came up to me (after the 4 years ) and asked me what my last name was. When I responded Lee, she came back with " no, your LAST name".
I feel your pain!
