"Sarah, I gotta agree with Nan that I wouldn't use "Andersen" for a girl, for the reason she cited. It's okay for a boy, tho. Actually, she suggested "Ander", but I believe the correct Scandinavian (Swedish?) version of Andrew is "Anders" (with the "s")."

@@@@ You're right, of course, Daividh. I guess I must've still been thinking "Andersen" and visualizing "Ander's" instead of "Anders". Should've been thinking "Anagrams!", then I would've remembered that name correctly. :)
