Re: Bear, Banjo, & Wilkie
in reply to a message by Billina
Wilkie is a mn, not a fn, so I wouldn't say too much. I had a classmate with the nn Bear, but I don't know how he got it. Knowing I sometimes let my feelings show by my expression, I'd probably have a confused look and end up asking why they chose the name, then go on my way. I'm not familiar with either author, so I'd go with gossip mags/ star following.

I should have clarified...
...that I meant Wilkie as a first name. SJP used it as a middle name, but I'm wondering what the reaction would be if someone IRL used it as a first name.
