[Opinions] Re: Fanny (as full name)
in reply to a message by Felie
This is one of my nicknames actually. Fanny is used as a full name in France. Not sure it can work elsewhere."We have met the enemy and he is us" Walt Kelly

There's a young woman named Fanny who works as a check-out clerk in a grocery where I often shop. I assume it's her actual name, as all the other clerks have standard first names on their name badges-Julie, Claudette, Marie-Pier, Lisa...I had an aunt-by marriage named Fanny;I suppose her name was really Frances, but I never asked.
"My aunt Fanny!"-an exclamation in older British novels. :-)
