For what it's worth, I don't think he messed up Saarinen (or, at least, messed it up enough to garner a neg), but he did turn Eero into Eeno. All the more reason not to give first names unless you have to.twelvefootboy wrote: ↑Wed Jun 15, 2022 11:57 pm She seemed to rule decisively on the pronunciation of Saarinen which you promptly rebounded. I didn't hear that Gregory butchered it up that much and it seemed like a quick rejection. Did that go down in real time that way?

I still don't know why that is wrong, and why Gregory wasn't required to give a last name (since it isn't Quimby).
I guess "of the same name" means that everything you give in your response must apply to both characters to be correct. Since Helen Hunt Jackson's character didn't have the last name Quimby, it couldn't be taken.
