I'm aware of the meaning of "randy" in Australia and England. There's a
song that has a line "randy as a goat." Because of this, because I'm
writing to an international audience, from now on I'll use my legal
name given by my mother , Andrew, instead of the nickname given by my
father, Randy. For anything of legal importance, birth certificate,
paycheck, marriage license, diplomas, licenses...I use Andrew Ganey,
not Randy Ganey.

Thanks for your reply,

Andrew Ganey
Belleville, Illinois
U.S.A.

by the way I just love you guys named Randy. :-)

in your home town you'd probably walk up to a girl and say "Hi, I'm
Randy"

randy in australia is a colloquialism meaning sexually frustrated.
if you walked up to a girl in australia and said that you'd probably
get a backhander across the cheek :-)
