and her sister, Mary Tyler, I presume? m
in reply to a message by Amanda Frances
Sorry, but I loved the Mary Tyler Moore Show when I was younger, so I tend to think of her best friend from the show, Rhoda, when I hear the name. It's very 70s to me for that reason.
ETA: My subject line is meant in fun because it makes me smile to think of the show; I'm not trying to be snotty. :)

if we're being totally faithful to the show...
Rhoda's sister was named Brenda, I believe. (Thank goodness for Tv-land, right?)
When I hear the name I think of a really obnoxious, grating New York accent. I do't think Rhoda herself had that accent, but I know for sure her mother did.

Oh, I know they weren't sisters on the show; I just mean for a real-life person using the name Rhoda for a DD, they should use MT as a sister for irony. :)
Ooooh, GMTA. ;-)
