Lots of people have been surprised to learn that I am a "girl" (actually 70's and married to my awesome fella) by some of the phrases I have used when posting. My first name is the male spelling (don't go by it 'ceptin when I have to for legal-schmegle stuff) and it is unbelievable all the mail I get addressed to "Mr.". Heck, when I was a senior in high school, I got a letter from the Marine Corps Recruiting Office offering to "make a man out of me". Uh, no thanks, don't think so.
I'm still not sure I understand you correctly. Is your first name "Dilly"? Is that on your birth certificate or is that your nickname?
