Aww, not my M name. .... but honestly, I don't think you can define a person by a name. Or astrological sign, or any of that. People are who they are, and commonalities come through experiences, not names or birthdays.
Bummed my name wasn't the M name, but it never is. For anything.
Michelle was my best friend growing up. She had, like, a different personality every week-- not in a bad way, or how she'd treat you, but in the way of like, oh this week I'm into yoga! Now I'm obsessed with soaps! Now we have to go buy workout gear 'cause I'm a RUNNER now! Now I'm going to be a singer! No, an actress! No, an interior decorator! No, a doctor!--and she was always the first person in school to have the funky new haircut. She was kind of fearless but wore her heart on her sleeve a lot-- I'd probably have called her a drama queen if I didn't like her so much. I moved away when we were 15, eight years ago, and we lost touch. I miss her. She'll always be the one the Beatles were singing about to me.
@myyysharona: I wish I could find it, but they did a thing on their website where they did audio clips, and you had to try and match it up to their pictures. I did a horrific job at guessing.
@mfnher: i would have probably screwed up on that quiz, too. right after i commented on this and went to npr.org. i poked around the site until i found out what the other commentators and reporters looked like. what i imagined in my mind versus what i saw were completely different. (well, except for carl kassel.) now i am wondering how far off my mental images of what my clients from work (the ones i only have phone relationships with) are...
I think of Michelle Tanner when I hear the name Michelle. When I discovered that Michelle was played by twins, it blew my mind. I guess I don't really know very many Michelles in real life.
I am also late to this name game, as I didn't realize that my name (my name lacks an N though and is not pronounced the same way) was the first one covered.
No! I beg to differ. My best friend is a Michelle, and while she is indeed tall and cool, she is one of the messiest people I know, and she gets asked out a lot.
I am glad to see that this J.Crew top looks as awkward on her as it does on me. It seems like ti would be so regal, but something about the execution is just off. Bet Michelle would get a heck of a lot more on Ebay for hers though.
@lilyHaze: This one that I have just never seems to stay in place- one ruffle is always standing while the other flops over, making it look uneven. The inner ruffle is also very high so it seems to make you look neckless. I have some others that are a similar style and work, but this one is pretty weird on in my experience.

Don't forget Michele Norris! Her voice continues to soothe me on my drive. Maybe she doesn't count, because it's Meeeshell?
