she didn't choose that middle name ...
It was given to her by her parents in honor of St. Vincent's Hospital, where her uncle was resuscitated after being found nearly frozen to death. (Lucky for her her uncle wasn't taken to City General.)Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!

Understood....But she (and her family) did choose to use it, as opposed to Edna. She was known as "Vincent". And I must admit, the full name flows beautifully. But I'd have used Edna as the name she was known by.

I get a different vibe from Vincent and Edna, beyond gender.
