    HI GWEN,
    IM A "GWENDOLYN" ALSO BUT WITH ONE "N". GWENDOLYN ELOUISE, I HATED MY NAME GROWING UP. I HAD AN EIGHT GRADE ENGLISH TEACHER WHO HAD TO BE 150 YRS OLD IF A DAY, WHO WOULD GET IN FRONT CLASS AND CALL OUT TO ME IN A VERY LOAD SHRILL VOICE "GWENNNN A VERERRRRRRR" AND NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES I TOLD HER IT WAS GWENDOLYN SHE WOULD STILL CALL ME "GWENNNN A VERERRRRRRR" (WE WEREN'T ALLOW TO USE NICKNAMES OR SHORTENED NAMES) SHE ENDED UP BEING MY FAVORITE TEACHER AND TAUGHT ME TO ENJOY READING AND THE WORD OF GOD. BUT SHE NEVER COULD TEACH ME HOW TO SPELL OR GRAMMAR, LOL THEN ONE DAY A BOY I HAD A CRUSH ON CALLED ME " LADY GWENDOLYN " AND I LOVED MY NAME EVER SINCE.(HE WENT ON TO MARRY MY BEST FRIEND)... MY SPANISH SPEAKING FRIENDS CALL ME "WEN" MY COUSINS CALL ME "GWENNY" OR "WENDY"??MY HUSBAND CALLED ME "GAIL" FOR THE FIRST THREE MONTHS WE DATED???.. MY TENANTS CALL ME ,.. WELL NEVER MIND, LOL

    I never hated my name, I just didn't like to spell the whole think when I was younger. At home they called me Gwenny. I hated that name and couldn't wait for them to stop calling me that.
