Re: Coughangela...?
There has to be an inside story behind that. Like Carol Burnett tugging her ear to say 'I love you' to someone at the end of her show.

I wondered about that as well, though I thought it might be slightly odd for the author to use an in-joke for one niece, and just use the straight names for the others (though it's still definitely possible).

Maybe it's just the one niece that the author has that kind of in-joke with? One related to her name, I mean. There's something similar in my family.

Yeah, my first thought was that it had to be some kind of inside joke. I didn't know about Carol Burnett, though, but I looked it up and that's really sweet.
