    My mother would often recollect how in bygone days when grandma was angry at her and her siblibings, she'd merely shout out, "Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!" >.<
    That's like Bill Cosby when he says "I used to think my name Jesus Christ and my brother Russell was Dammit" If you've never seen "Bill Cosby: Himself" do, its hilarious!

      I have a coworker who came in with the same hiring class with me, and works the opposite shift. My name is Leslie, and her name is Lindsay, and our coworkers constantly call us by eachothers names. It's gotten to the point that our sup has called the wrong employee on a cell (i.e. calling Lindsay's phone while she was here at work to ask me to come in early) and addressed me as her in an email asking a question (my response was "I don't think I'm going to give you an answer until you can remember my name!).

          I have four sisters and when my mom gets all flustered and angry at one of us, she runs through the names and usually ends it with "whoever pissed me off--get in here!"

          My youngest sisters are twins and I get them confused. Usually I just call them "twin" if I need to speak with one, "hey, twin." Or I smash their names together or use their initials "Hey, K-B-..." etc.

              never really been names with me, but words, here are some of the few phrases I've uttered.

              "Do you need any questions with that?"
              "How can I computer you"
              "What's the problem with your problem?"

                I'm surprised at how many people can misspell my name.
                They put it as "Erick"
                ?????!??!?!?!
                It's "Eric". I would probably expect them to ask "C or K?" But to probably make up a name...

                Don't get me started on the last name.

                  It's true. It's all so true!!!! Odd that the younguns could tell us apart easier than he could.

                    To this day, my mom calls me the dog's name. The dead dog's name. I find it funny as hell to be called "Pep" Now considering that this dog was like a second child to my mother, and really all she had while I was at school/out and about and my dad was at work, I understand. But man it does something to your esteem to be called the dog's name.

                      Remember that the kids grew up with us in their lives, and he didn't meet us til we were...15? 16? Something like that?

                        Sounds about right.

                        I'm getting old. Where's my walker?

                            I have called my fiance, whose name is Keith, all of the following, and multiple times each:

                            Harry, Nigel, Lauren, Mom, and Dad

                            The poor thing. These usually only come out when I am frustrated, or if he is behaving in a manner that reminds me of my family.

                              Well, let's see. My parents had four of us, and I don't think they ever called us by name without having to go down the list until I moved out.

                              I only have one child, but I have two stepchildren. I get my stepdaughter and daughter's names mixed up all the time.

                                I've called my boy 'dad' on occasion.


                                I called him by my exes name once, though, that was worse.
