What's in a Name?

Q. Hey, Average Boy!

I have a friend who sometimes gets teased about his middle name. It's Ambrose, and sometimes the kids call him Ann Rose. Do you have any advice for him?

Squanto Jones the Fourth

A. Hey, Squanto:

Your friend isn't the only one with a name problem. You must've faced some teasing as well. I can't image living with the name “Jones.” Very unusual. Tell your friend to change his middle name to Gertrude and to answer the door anytime someone asks what his real middle name is.

Hope that helps!

Your friend and mine,
Average Boy
