Re: Prisciana
in reply to a message by Fiammetta
As long as you say "What an interesting name! Do tell me about it" rather than "Bugger! Where'd you get a name like that?" it's a friendly and acceptable thing to do. Could also depend on your first impression of the waitron - some are friendlier than others, and all are often rushed off their feet. It's very complicated (the name, not the situation) you'd need Priscius instead of Priscus, then Priscianus, and only then Prisciana.
