Today I rang up a sale for a woman whose first name was “Nazi”. I didn’t ask how it was pronounced. I didn’t make any comment at all, in fact. Just didn’t wanna open up the can o’ worms. But I’m here to tell you, that’s what it said on her driver’s license. N-A-Z-I.
Maybe it was short for something else, although I was under the impression that the CA DMV doesn’t allow abbreviations. But I’m still wondering what cultural background would result in that for a first name. And why she hasn’t changed it.
I should amend my OP. When I said “I wonder what kind of cultural background”, I wasn’t trying to be cute; I really did wonder. Her last name also began with N-A-Z (I don’t remember exactly what it was), so it probably is her given name, not one that she chose.
