JeanR has two nice J's on the envelope. The business sized envelopes are nice for longer names. When I was making up the lists for the March exchange - it was right at the time that I was grrr-ing at myself for always messing up Lauren's name with her 6 letters - but starting out like I only had 5 letters to work with. So, I got curious - about the number of letter in the frequent exchangers.
It's possible that this is of no interest to anyone - but - it's my blog - so I get to jabber about whatever random topic pops into my head. Here is the breakdown:
3-letters: Amy Mia —2
4-letters: Jean(R&W) Kate Ming Mary Troy —6
5-letters: April Cathy Chuck Grace Irene Janet Lynne Patty Smash/Susan —9
6-letters: Gloria Lauren Leslie Maggie Nanski Sharon —6
7-letters: Carolyn Jessica Valerie —3
8-letters: Samantha —1
We would add Smash to the 3-letter group - when she is Sue.
Gloria and Leslie - don't always take up a full 6 spaces because of their l and i.
I'm not going to cover the last names -- just a quick shout out to Wu and Schwessinger - it always *makes my day* when I come up with something that works for shortest (2) and longest (12).
As I have mentioned (many times) when we ponder our struggles with spacing -- the simple answer is pencil -- as if I need to say that again.
