You know it's funny, and a generational thing I know, but my mother hated being addressed as Mrs.
HerFirstName Surname. Completely incorrect, she always said. She would say should either be Mrs. Husband'sFirstName Surname or simply HerFirstName Surname. In other words, she maintained taht if you use a first name with "Mrs.", it should be the husband's first name.
She finally got used to having people use Mrs. and her first name, but I don't think she ever got to where she liked it or thought it was proper.
