HelpRe: Ronald
in reply to a message by Lily
I have three bad associations with it:
McDonald.
Reagan.
A long-time employee of my father's, who was an ignorant, disgusting old hayseed.
This last was the only Ronald I've ever known personally, and he was far from young. He was quite a bit older than I am. I'd say he must be at least in his seventies now, if not in his eighties, if he's still alive. He went by Ronnie.
I just don't like the name. I'm not sure how much the associations influence my view. I really don't think I'd like it anyway, but they don't help.
