Thanks, Oldhickory. Here I always thought the only "Mona" was Laine's Aunt? (that was in Stacey's Ex-Best Friend), who for some reason never struck me as being a particularly nice person. I haven't read the book in awhile so don't remember.
I was thinking last night that maybe (one of) the reasons Ann named a lot of characters double names was because (and I apologize if this has been discussed already and/or to death) but in the 50's there were (weren't there)? a lot of "Mary Ellen's," "Mary or Peggy Sues," "Betty Jo," etc. Mary Anne always being called Mary Anne never bothered me, that was simply her name. I honestly never even thought of the "Anne" as being her middle name, although it probably was. David Michael always being called David Michael was something else! I also noticed that every now and then Ann or the Ghostie would let "slip" that Gabbie Perkins was "Gabbie Ann." Although I was glad she was not always called Gabbie Ann.

You kind of don't need a middle name when you have a double name You do if your double name is spelled as one word, like mine! ;D

I don't think there was anyone named Bre or Breanna. But now that I've typed that, I feel like there was an alternate spelling of Bre somewhere, but I'm likely to be mistaken.

^But I bet you are a million times nicer than Ms. Schafer can be. Where in SoCal did you grow up, if I can ask? I did too and currently live here again. My middle name is apart of the most "scared" of female names in all of BSC lore: Beth. (No, it's not short for Elizabeth). No offense to anyone with that name, but lol, I never liked it.

zoar3 - I hope I'm nicer than her! lol Actually, the Dawn I see in my head is a little different in behavior from book-Dawn. I just can't handle her sometimes! I like her in the earlier books.... I grew up in Ventura county, which is actually somewhat close to where Dawn was supposed to live....I should have gone and given her a good kick, come to think of it.... Anyway, whereabouts are you? You don't have to answer, but I promise I'm not a stalker. (Yeah, yeah, that's what they all say...) lol virgoscorpio! Which book? Stacey's Big Crush? Stacey's Broken Heart? Or were you one of her many Super Special luv-ahs?

Not a BSC member or other main character but I have the same name, first and middle, of the Perkins family's youngest, Laura Elizabeth.
