Brenda A. Ferber: Hello. My name is Brenda A. Ferber. My middle name does not begin with A. It's actually Gale, and the A stands for my maiden name, which is Aaronson. When I was growing up, I didn't like my name at all because I couldn't pronounce my Rs, and so I told people my name was Bwenda Aawonson, and that was extremely embarrassing as you can imagine, but now I can pronounce my Rs and all my other letters, so I like my name very much.
