The Stuff I Like

Name: Douglas (Please don’t call me Douglas. Doug will do just fine. Or you can use one of the listed nicknames if you so prefer.) I must tell you that I had a pharmaceutical rep spell my name “Dung” one time. She didn’t get much business. I also had my grandma with dementia spell it “Dug” on a Christmas card one time. Just the other day I had the Papa Murphy’s Pizza lady running the register spell it “Douge.” Is it really that hard of a name?
