[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh my grandmother did something like this! My parents named me Suzanne which apparently was far too Frenchified for my old Irish grandmother. I grew up using a nickname so it should have been even more irrelevant, but for my entire life she addressed me as Susan, including in letters and cards. As far as I can remember, we only ever laughed about it. She was a tough old biddy and those tribal New England prejudices die hard. [b]OP your MIL isn't cool w/the way you've spelled your daughter's name. You can stew in resentment, correct her ad nauseum, and spend decades fighting over a space. Or consider it an absurd family joke[/b]. [/quote] This. It’s pretty ridiculous that she thinks she can impact anything by buying lots of personalized gifts. The only impact she can have is annoying you, so if you take that away from her, she has nothing. [/quote]
