  1. i think that i’ll just maintain at jeremy, it confuses enough students to be worthwhile.

  2. i also have the problem of 3 names: biella, gabriella, and enid, which adds to the confusion :-)

  3. We were just talking about this in class last week — when discussing cross-cultural conflict. Some variables we noted: what the Prof said, age, the school (i.e., pre-professional tends toward first name), and dress (i.e., nice (tie/dress) or casual)).
