No, my dad isn't Dave Thomas!

[hucifer]

I get asked that sooooo many times because my name is Wendy.

Do you have a constant stupid thing that YOU are asked because of your name?

 

[doxdogy]

My maiden name was Sisco. Of course I was always asked "Hey Sisco, where is pancho?" or called the "Sisco Kid".

 

[Aidensmom]

I have a very common last name, one that has many phone book pages dedicated to it. I am always being asked if I know someone else with the same last name. Yes, all 50,000 of us are a tight knit group.

 

[kerrynic78]

I married a Kruger....I can't tell you how many times I have heard, "Where's Freddy?" I feel bad for my DH who has had to endure it his whole life!

 

[Divamomto3]

Yes! My last name is the same as a famous actresses so everyone asks me if I'm her sister.

 

[hucifer]

[olena]

With a name like Heather, I've been asked why I'm not a blonde.

 

[cynsaun]

My madien name was Hanks. I couldn't go anywhere that people didn't ask me constantly if I was related to Tom. It all started about the time Splash and then Big made him a big star.

 

[theSurlyMermaid]

I get, "Can you grant me three wishes?" ALL the time.

 

[Otto's Doll]

I get, "Can you grant me three wishes?" ALL the time.

I have heard that one, as well as having people sing
"Jeanie with the light brown hair..." or Jean, Jean, Roses are red... (BTW, I don't even like to be called Jeanie... my name is Jeanne ~ no E sound at the end!)

Did you know that Wendy's real name was Melinda? Wendy is just a nickname that her siblings gave her.

(my name is Melinda and I never get asked stupid things. I just get called Melissa or Melanie a lot.)

 

[luvmydogs]

My dad's name is Dick Tracy, and if I had a nickel for every time someone said, "Hey...Uhhhh... (insert Beavis and Butthead laugh here)...Do you know your dad's name is Dick Tracy?" I'd be a millionaire.

 

[robinb]

Where's Batman?

 

[RadioNate]

How's wonderland?

Hello my name is Alison, the book/movie is Alice In.....so annoying and they aren't even getting it right.

 

[kelleigh1]

Oh yes. My name is Raquel...just like Raquel Welch. So of course, I'm always asked if I look like her. Considering that she's 65 and I'm 35...not quite. She's also Mexican and I'm English...so there is no resemblance. And then there is the occassional idiot who will ask if we're related.

But what I hate most is when people call me Rachel!!

Oh well, then let me help you out then...

Melinda, is your dad Dave Thomas?

BTW, I didn't know that!

I knew that!!!!! I was a manager for Wendys for 7 years and all that stuff was drilled into my head when I was training. I STILL put my toppings on my hamburger the Wendys way....I can't do it any other way.
