Hate it. It sounds dumb, like somebody's poodle. I keep picturing a cookie-cutter little curly-haired blonde girl in Gymboree clothes, always showing off her ballet and her flute and her princess costumes, monopolizing every social event she goes to, always needing to be the center of attention, and her parents just let her do it because they're secretly a little guilty about leaving her with a foreign nanny most of the time.

I also keep hearing the silly song "Put your shoes on, Lucy, dah-da-dah, put your shoes on Lucy, 'cause you know you're in the city. Put your shoes on, Lucy, you're a big girl now."
