Heh. Yeah, that reminds me of my maternal grandmother's final years. Her name was "Bernice," pronounced, "BURR-niss" (what that side of the family did to names was obscene; Bernice had a sister named "Elenor," pronounced "ELL-nurr). When she went into assisted living, everyone on staff called her "bur-NEESE." I was the only person who seemed bothered by it.
