Jane.
It's not that difficult a name, is it?
So how come twice in the last two weeks, somebody has called me Jan? Really, it would be hard to confuse me with the Owner'ssecretary assistant, who is round and blonde and is named Jan. (And we do get one another's mail sometimes, thank you Outlook Autofill.)
I just couldn't keep my mouth shut about it yesterday, and corrected the guy on the spot. Wish I had better control of myself - I ought to have waited til after the meeting.
