Name associations

Since I've been here, I haven't been able to escape the celebrity/movie character name associations.  I introduce myself:

 Hi, I'm Leanne.  Response, Like Leann Rimes?  No, Leanne as in Mag**son.  (I despise Leann Rimes.)

or

Giving my passport to police or security   Oh, Rose is your middle name, Yes.  Like Rose from Titanic?  (Yikes!  Don't go there!  )  Uh, sure, but NO...Rose as in the flower, as in my Grandmother.  I don't say such things but I think them.  :)   Association is fine, but for me....those two are unflattering. 

I must say, they go over my passport with a fine toothed comb.  It's fine, I'd probably do the same thing. 

Despite some of the hardships around here, people are genuinely happy and nice.
