Name tag on chest area.

The other day I had a shop where one of the employees was named (according to his name badge) "Daddy". As in, who's your _____? Le sigh

I have had some unusual names captured:

1. Paradise
2. Precious
3. September

The oddest one was a man named "Connie" but readers posted here, that they knew a man named Connie. It was a first for me. smiling smiley

Also, names like Chavrealoquice are very hard to spell. tongue sticking out smiley

Perhaps ask for a selfie with the associate if the name is hard to spell.

Connie is short for Conrad, I do believe. It's not much different than a man named Richard being called Richie (never did figure out the "Dick" thing from Richard, though).
In the case of Connie Mack (the male baseball manager), Connie was short for Cornelius. It is also sometimes used as a nickname for Conan, Conrad, Constantine, and Conway, among others. Sometimes it is a standalone male name. I knew Connie, a man who owned a drugstore and luncheonette in the closest town to where I grew up. That was his full first name. He is long gone, but the luncheonette (but not the Rexall Drugstore) remains. [www.yelp.com]

I had a name from a name tag and a receipt of Nancy the employee was a male. Of course, I was questioned by the MSC about having the corect name or sex of the person. I wrote them back to confirm the Nancy was a male indeed. Sometimes it is hard to tell. LOL! It is Hispanic recreate of one of their names and it translates to look like the English female version of Nancy.That was what I was told by the employee anyway because I asked him.
I guess you can't go wrong with your answer to is on the left or the right!

I have one MSC asking me to explain an unusual name, I even asked the clerk what her name was because it looked unusual, the name on the tag was NayNay, they keep asking me to clarify this. Not once or twice, I even called then and talked to the editor who said to explain this in the report. I had. ​

I usually have a female dining guest and make them responsible for the hostess name tag. I have received some dirty looks trying to get it as I'm being seated. One clearly saw I was trying to read the tag and spelled her difficult name for me and rolled her eyes as she pulled her shirt away from her chest by about three inches by the tag. I have no idea what she thought I was, but I don't think she thought I was a shopper with that attitude.


I did a bar/dining shop and the bartender was wearing a name tag that said one name and introduced them self as another name. Then when I closed out the bar tab, the receipt had a third name on it.

I gave a very detailed description along with all three names. They probably forgot a name tag and borrowed one out of the name tag junk drawer (most places have one with employees that quit) and then used another bartenders drawer.

The editor did not question the report.
