> this confusion was caused because I didn't make David take my name when we married
Beautifully put - I have the same "issue".
I'm OK with Chum, Bel - but I think people might have problems with Blonde, unless it was a multi-choice - Brunette, Mouse, Chestnut, Dappled ... oh no that would be a horse ...

Ya, I always wondered why blonde wound up meaning girlfriend.
It is much more common to say "she has blond hair" (elle a les cheveux blonds) than to say "she's blond" (elle est blonde) though, so the predominant definition of blonde is girlfriend.
