[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Christina Andrew Gretchen[/quote] Anyone?[/quote] That you're not bright enough to know that Gretchen isn't a real name, just the shortening of one. And doesn't remotely match the previous ones. Trying to hard to match some ethnicity....that isn't matched by Andrew. Gretchen is German short form of Margarete. Andreas is German form of Andrew. Christina is mispelled if it's German. Just Nononononono.[/quote] You're so funny. In that "ridiculous" funny way. That's my name (Christina) and Andrew and Gretchen are my siblings' names. We're in our 30s and 40s. My mom had German parents, so she knew full well that Gretchen is indeed a "real" name, and indeed that it's a diminutive of Margarete, but can of course stand alone. But you know what, Mom grew up on Long Island, so she's first generation American. And she liked the names Christina and Andrew. It's not that complicated. Aber du weisst das schon. Thanks for trying.[/quote] Well, as an actual German (I'm an expat), I can assure you that Gretchen is a nickname in Germany. Not a given name. And perhaps if you didn't want the snark, posting your real names was not such a good idea?[/quote]
