Subject: Call the marshall! Kid D is in town!

Someone of the OS from Scotland says Kydd is a common surname and they've only ever heard it pronouced "kid". So it looks like that may be it. I guess I can get used to it but the poor boy will have to deal with wrong pronunciations and misspellings all his life now!
Maybe the boy will be like Mulder and say, "Just call me Duchovny."

I remember DD saying when Madelaine West was nborn that he thought Madelaine was too big a name for a tiny baby so he just called her little girl. Maybe that was the thinking here. Something short. I actually think a three syllablew name goes best with Duchovny. Very musical sounding. I was happy to hear Madelaine but then they started calling her West.

Just wondering, did Elton ever get asked if he could sing Bennie and the Jets or play the piano. ;-) I don't mean that as a tease, I just know *everybody's* name can get made fun of one way or another.
My mother just told me yesterday that both me and my sister were partly named after two of her sorority sisters. She never told me that before!
