Dear Abby by Abigail Van Buren

NAME GAME GIVES PLEASURE TO THOSE WITH EAR FOR IRONY

DEAR ABBY: I have enjoyed the columns you've printed about people whose
names matched their professions, and wonder if you would be interested
in an incident that happened to my sister. Her name is Dragony, and she
works in a pharmacy located in a medical building. Her license plate
reads DRAGONY. Well, someone went into the pharmacy and asked the girl
at the counter, "Who is Dr. Agony?" I still laugh when I think about it.
-- KATHI IN CALIFORNIA

DEAR KATHI: Funny! Your sister's license plate reminds me of one that
belongs to my neighbor, who happens to be an anesthesiologist. Her
license plate reads: EPIDURL.

I am still hearing from readers offering names -- and some of them are a
hoot. Read on:

DEAR ABBY: Years ago, I was office manager for a printing company that
did work for the American Tobacco Co. in North Carolina. The purchasing
agent's assistant there was a woman by the name of Flicka Ashe. Can you
believe it! -- DOLORES IN SPARTANBURG, S.C.

DEAR ABBY: I have sold real estate for 18 years, and no one ever forgets
my name. It's ... BETH NEWHOUSE, MAYVILLE, N.Y.

DEAR ABBY: My grandma fell and broke her hip last summer and had to have
surgery. Her surgeon? Dr. Mark Cutright! -- KATHY IN TENNESSEE

DEAR ABBY: Shame on you! How could you forget your fellow member of the
Group for Advancement of Psychiatry -- Dr. John Looney? -- FRANCES ROTON
BELL, DALLAS

DEAR ABBY: Here's an item that might qualify. It's from the Jan. 16
edition of our local newspaper: "Charles T. Sprinkle, 27, of Sandpoint
was cited on a charge of urinating in public at 11:52 p.m. in the 200
block of Main Street." -- LARRY S. IN IDAHO

DEAR ABBY: Would you like more names that match? My optician was named
Ralph Glance, my daughter's allergist was Dr. Eitches, and my children's
dentist is Dr. Spitz. -- SUSAN K., HAYWARD, CALIF.

DEAR ABBY: When I was in high school, there was a family with the last
name "Braa." Guess what the mom's first name was? "Iona"! My initials
are "B.S.," but this story is not. -- B.S., FARIBAULT, MINN.

DEAR ABBY: When my sister and I were children, we'd play a game called
"I Spy" during road trips from Georgia to Alabama. On one of them we
spotted a septic tank installation and maintenance company named "Seth
Poole and Sons." -- LARRY IN DOERUN, GA.

DEAR ABBY: I used to work with a young woman named Linda Snow. She met
and married a wonderful man. When she did, she became Mrs. Snow-White!
-- A FAN, SUN CITY, ARIZ.

DEAR ABBY: My salesman husband was dealing with a particularly difficult
client who demanded to speak to the boss. The reply: "I'll be happy to
transfer you to him. His name is Robin Hood; if he isn't in, you can
speak with his secretary -- Marian!" True story, real people. --
JENNIFER IN HOUSTON

DEAR ABBY: This isn't occupation-related, but I thought you might get a
kick out of it anyway. I went to school with twins Esther and Lester
Chester and their big brother, Chester Chester Jr. And no, I'm not
kidding. -- L. LEGGETT, MAGNOLIA, MISS.
