Mind you, my Lachlan is English - but still, seems Shirleys (Like Beryls and Yvonnes) are the same across the world.Pandora Behrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17582255671962095503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966368087145658519.post-36645776282683281492010-11-29T20:41:07.264+11:002010-11-29T20:41:07.264+11:00I know a Lachlan whose mother's name is Shirle...I know a Lachlan whose mother's name is Shirley. He's from Melbourne and the beer and smokes thing fits too. <br />I love naming things. All my teddies and monkeys have names.

It's bad luck to change it as that'll alter the mantra's vibe. Don't know whether or not I agree with the theory, but it DOES explain similarities between people with the same name!!<br /><br />Happy travels!!Red Nomad OZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03020668094026661054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966368087145658519.post-63437500496214452702010-11-29T13:02:10.479+11:002010-11-29T13:02:10.479+11:00Shirley is a close ally of Cheryl.

Your friend Amanda hates being called Mandy - and she only lets family call her that cos they don't know better - she particularly hates it when you bray it across the office. Deal with that. And lastly - as you are aware, I change all names in this blog. And yes, your mum has a lovely name just like the queen - too lovely to name a sat nav after.Pandora Behrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17582255671962095503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7966368087145658519.post-14596953516161961832010-11-29T03:29:25.962+11:002010-11-29T03:29:25.962+11:00I agree, names are fun.
