I understand that. My mom got our names mixed up too ;-)

I was always called Joy or Jonathan….

I think in all of this analysis (and catharsis–can someone clean that up?), you all have overlooked something: the very real possibility that I am simply a bonehead!

Mark (almost never mistaken for anybody else because, hey, I’m too boring)

All righty, people. Here’s how it goes: Matt — Yes, you’re Hat, but that was instigated by Kathliene. I’m just a happy, happy glommer-on to that one. :-)

James — Of course, I plead not guilty to calling you Sean, BUT, s’possible I’ve forgotten the trangression. I DO remember telling you you sorta reminded me of my nephew, in which case I should start calling you Jordan. Hmmm …

Lucinda — I don’t know you, but with a name that cool, how could I call you anything else?

Rick — We’ve never met, only through blogging, but you definitely seem like a Rick to me, if that’s good news to you. Besides, the only Steve I knew well is … well, dead.

Art, er, Walt, Mr. Patriarch — There seems to be a whole letter “A” hubbub in the Heine family, in which case, if we ever meet, I’m sure I’d end up calling you Art … or Andrew … or Adam. But hey, as a fair trade, I guess you could call me (cringe) Stacey. ;-)

And Adam, Adam, Adam — Admittedly, you’ve been a variety of things. Andrew? Yep. Matt? Yep, on purpose. Peaches, (he he) also on purpose. And Coco, don’t remember why. Never David, though. That’s one’s a head scratcher for sure. But of course, any name, whatever name — it’s always with the love. All about the love.

Did I miss anybody? Whhewwww! That was weirdly cathartic.

Hugs ‘n’ kisses (Because I’m just that kind of gal, eh?)

Tracey, er, Stacey

For some reason, people call me Steve. It happens over and over and over again – even by people I’ve never met in person. :-)

Tracey says I’m Sean. It changes between I “look like Sean” and “you’re the sound guy.” But more than that, I’ve been called Jon almost as much as my own name on first introduction. It was kinda explainable because my brother’s name is Jon, but when I got into social circles that he had not been in, it was just weird. To conclude, I agree.

Matt is better than Mama Laird’s name for you…

Thanks for my laugh of the day. =^)

Ok, Adam, go figure. The name I have been called almost as often as Walt is Art. I can understand people at church who mixed Art Cotant and me up but people at work and customers who don’t know Art Cotant — why did they call me Art? Could be my skills, such as mediating, are an art and not a talent ;-). What do you think?

To answer your question, here, in a public setting: Yes – I have been called Adam before. I don’t think I’ve been called Adam as much as you’ve been called Matt, but it happens not infrequently.
It’s not like we even look that much alike.
