The name Fern has a deep meaning for me now after I watched Frances McDormand play the lead character Fern in Nomadland yesterday. It’s quite a film. Everyone should see it. It was directed by a Chinese woman who has been nominated as best director for this year’s oscars. It’s about many things but mostly about one woman’s grief.

Thank you, Liz. It took me years to accept the name. I was Bonnie at summer camp. On alert to being teased, because Steve Allen, a man of many talents, and the first host of The Tonight Show, often asked male guests, 'How's your fern'? I escaped ridicule and grew up to own the name, perhaps, because I love plants, ferns included.

Let’s just say it’s a timely name— I love plants and ferns too. Frances McDormand I think chose the name— I’d call it a no nonsense name.
'No nonsense' is apt in my case, too, Liz.
Me too.
