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.
