Question Amy: She has picked an irritating nickname for the grandkids to simply call her

Pricey Amy: I’m hoping you can give me some perception for compassion.

My mother’s identify is an odd spelling of an if not common name. For occasion, say her title is “Lucy” but spelled “Lucee.”

She will get incredibly upset when men and women really do not get the spelling ideal (which is generally, since I have never noticed a identical spelling of this incredibly popular identify).

I comprehend her attitude about this simply because that is her offered title and she surely has the suitable to hope individuals to get it correct.

Here’s the rub, even though: She not too long ago grew to become a grandmother and has declared a pretty odd spelling of her picked out grandmother nickname.

She has picked out to be called Nana, and has made a decision that it have to be spelled “Nan’nah.” And she is insistent on the spelling she has established.
