It didn't get less weird and it didn't work out.

You live and you learn.

1. My boyfriends ex-wife has the same name as his sister...
Easter was awful, every time someone said his sister's name, I expected the ex to walk through the door and shove an ice pick in his chest :P

2. Young...
.
...when I married a young German woman while living there. One of the times
that MiddleFingerMomMom called from the States, my playful young bride decided
that it would be funny to MAXIMALLY distract me during the conversation.
.
It WAS funny. And it was MAXIMALLY distracting. Unable to carry on a conversation
with MiddleFingerMomMom, I was trying to, um... disenGAGE from my wife. I would
say "Mom?" into the phone, then say my wife's name in an attempt to get her to
stop -- "Hanne?".
.
Alternating between the two.
.
"Mom?"
.
"Hanne?"
.
"Mom?"
.
"Hanne?"
.
"Mom?"
.
"Hanne?"
.
Eventually, I lost track and called my wife "Mom" and my Mom "Hanne", which
caused my wife to start laughing like the maniac that she was (albeit in a
somewhat muffled way).
.
I'm not sure to this day if it was strictly a Freudian moment, but it WAS one
of the strangest moments in my entire life.
.
Just one more example of why I fell so deeply in love with my wife.
.
She was a very strange woman.
.
I loved that about her.
.

3. That would be especially bad if your sister was in the same house
and came running every time you said the name during you know when. That would make a great comedy sketch, actually. :rofl:
