It was St. Justin. I always planned on calling her Beth for short from my very favorite book growing up "Little Women" but somehow she has just always been Elizabeth.

My sister's name is Mary. My father's new wife's name is Mary, her two daughter's are MaryLee and MaryAnn. My brother's soon to be wife's name is MaryKate! I am so glad I'm not a Mary in this family, rofl! P.S. Mamie, I'm an Elizabeth called Liz, I love it, but do hate when people call me Little Lizzie.

Secret, between Egbob and I, we have about 5-6 of Elizabeths in our two families and we have taken to calling his youngest niece "Little Bit" instead of Elizabeth. I'm just an Eggie with no Mary even close to my real life and Catholic names, but I'm sure enjoying this thread!!

Hmmm, had a peek at St. Justin , Mare.
He was beheaded at about age 63. He was considered a martyr. I'd never heard of him before. Always learning something new.

My middle name is Marie. Big Ducky's Great Grandfather Christain married a Mary. Christain's son John who is BD's Grandfather married a Mary. John's son Harvey who is BD's father married a Mary.(BD's mom) Big Ducky broke the chain as my first name is not Mary.

Wow looks like a lot of good little Catholic girls here...and Jed. I'm not a Mary but I'm related to 2 Marys does that count? A Mary and a Mary Jo (shortened to Jodi) My conformation name is Elizabeth. Mom wanted that name but Dad didn't like it so I turned into a Kimberly Anne. Also had to have the saints name for my kids middle name. John for fisrt born, Colette for the second and Eugene for the third.

Just got home. Rupert, I'm officially Teresa Anne Marie but only because my mom was too stubborn to spell Therese. She spelled her middle name of Lorraine as LaRayne because they thought it was cool back in the 40's. Lots and lots of RL people call me Therese the rest call me Theresa and TVCH people call me Tess.......or hey you. My preference? Therese

Oh, cool Tess. A childhood friend of mine was Marie Thérèse with the accents. Better to be called 'hey you' than to be called 'late'. Marysafan...yes!!! Wow, thanks for looking that up. Too funny her name was Mary. Cute movie at the time. Dunno if it would seem dated now. And one last thing...Color de agua posted this morning on other threads...I peaked at her profile...and you to it ladies...ANOTHER MARY!

Ummm...Rubertbear, I didn't look it up. It's just one example of all the useless information that is stored in my head. That movie was one of my favorites growing up. Because my name is Mary, I was tickled that her name was Mary (even though she was blond). And her best friend's name was named Rachel. Which is the name of mischievious youngest daughter. Just kinda funny how things happen sometimes.

Good memory then, Mare. Did they make a sequel but Haley wasn't in it?
