Sounds like in my family....at every party if someone says, "Maria," we all respond in unison, "Which one?" Actually, after my grandmother's wake, my mom was standing in the middle of two Marias when she said, "I really hope Maria makes it here." Everyone laughed! Of course she was talking about the other Maria, but it was amusing! There are also a number of Anthonys, Jims, Angelos, Sals, and Sams.
