Quoth csquared View PostGene/Jean.
My suggestion was Sam (eg Samuel/Samantha), however, it was pointed out that one of our lecturers (who wasn't in at the time) shares that name and we did NOT want to associate a naked elderly dummy with him!

Wikipedia has a page on such names, including a nicknames section: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unisex_name#Nicknames
That section includes Sam, Pat, and Chris, along with some others that might leave you wondering why you didn't think of them. It doesn't include Gene/Jean, perhaps because those retain different spellings.

Since we have to pretty much create a backstory for this dummy as well, I might have some fun with that. (We have a batch of "mock patients" that we use for simulation scenarios.)

Quoth LadyofArc View Post(For those who don't, "Fanny" in the UK has very different connotations to elsewhere)
Friend and I bust out laughing, it took mom a full 3 seconds to realize why. To add to the entertainment, at the time mom's work was within walking distance to what used to be (and kind of still is) the red-light district."I am quite confident that I do exist."

To add onto the "fanny" comments, if you've ever watched an episode of "The Chase" (the UK one), there's an episode where a question is asked about "Fanny Chmelar" and what she was famous for (skiing). Normally the Chasers will keep it together while Bradley (the host) will crack up laughing, but this one resulted in EVERYONE (Chaser included) cracking up because of the unfortunate name
(And yes, I did read The Faraway Tree books as a kid - Fanny was the name used back then, it's now "Fran/Franny")

New one from today.
Somehow the topic got onto elephants and their penis size. Apparently an elephant's penis can weigh up to 65kg.
Cue one of the nurses stating loudly "I'm a walking elephant's penis then!"
(Oh and for those who were wondering, we've opted to call bob's companion "Jerry/Geri".)Last edited by LadyofArc; 10-31-2018, 06:26 AM.

I've seen a clip from that version of the show. Bradley completely lost it on the Andy Capp question."
Of course, with those possible answers, it would have been difficult to keep it together.This site proves Corey Taylor right. Man really is a "four letter word."
I'm now using my Deviant Art page to post my humor.
