I’m half inclined to think that her parents took ‘gloria mundi’ into consideration when naming her, rather than her first name ending up that way by chance. Certainly stranger coincidental names have happened, though.

Perfect (though I would use square brackets)! Thanks, Max.

“That was great … Made me litereally [sic] LOL!”
I'm not sure the author's intent was understood (not that it should be, necessarily, but)... [sic] was after the fact. I wouldn't LOL at my own jokes!

AnnaStrophic:
Here is your post in full:
That was great, J. Made me litereally [sic] LOL!
This was your response to my foodware taxonomical classification post.
I omitted the “J.” in my original reference to your post because I didn’t want it to seem like I was trying to draw attention to my attempt at humor in the foodware post.
It was not my intention to misrepresent your words, meaning, or intent. I only wanted to point out a humorous post you made that was apropos to this thread.

I was just saying that I wasn't as funny as you thought (maybe I should've just left things as they were and rested on my fragile laurels...). Your post made me laugh out loud, literally. I decided to type "litereally" and then inserted a [sic] as an afterthought so it wouldn't look like a typo. The sic = sick was gratuitous.
