Help[Opinions] Re: Twins named Jack and John?
in reply to a message by Julie
Ugh. I guess Andie is right, that kind of thing only bothers us "namenerds," but BOY, does it ever! :b
This came up the other day when I was watching "Walk the Line" on DVD with my sister. When Johnny Cash was younger, he went by J.R., but they showed his older brother in the movie, whose name was JACK. John & Jack. *rolls eyes* So I pointed this out to my sister, 'How stupid, they both have the same name.' She was bewildered, 'No they don't, one is John & one is Jack.' I replied: 'But Jack is a form of John.' She had no idea...or claimed not to. People, she's 43 years old! LOL. I pointed out the John/Jack Kennedy thing, and she was like 'oh.' *smacks forehead* I guess we're not just the only ones who know these things we're also the only ones who CARE. :b
