How many of us have a friend named “Bobby”?
Maybe you've known Bobby for awhile, perhaps since grade-school. If you’re like most of us, life is full, so you lose track of Bobby for awhile. Years later, when your paths cross (maybe he sends you a friend request on Facebook, or you meet up again at a class reunion), you warmly welcome your old comrade… “Who?!??” There is no getting around it. Bobby isn’t called “Bobby” anymore; he now goes by “Robert.”
