I find myself in the same situation, well sorta, that Jerry Seinfeld was in with Mulva / Delores...
Stop I go to every day, they got a new "administrative assistant" about 3 months ago. She's stunningly beautiful, shy, sweet. And she's called me by name since the first time we were introduced. She's either Hispanic or eastern European, it's hard to say. English is not her first language. She sounds so cute... lol She told me her name when we first met, but for the life of me I can't recall what it is. I think I was stunned by her looks. I sorta thought it was Eva, but I've heard people in that office say some strange sounding name that I don't quite get. Close to Eva, but not really... lol No pics, I'm too old for her, but I feel bad about just saying, "Hi", every day. They don't wear badges, no name plate on her desk. How do I find out her name without coming across as a complete a-hole? I don't want to admit to her that I have no idea, so asking her is out. |

Address her as "slut who receives my orgasm in her asshole" Never failed me yet. 
I'm gonna try to get a pic of her with my old-ass Samsung phone. A 2 megapixel potato. Nevertheless, you'll see why your statement is God's own truth. If she was some fucking hag I wouldn't even care about knowing her name. It's just awkward... |

Bashfully admit that you never caught her name when she told you it, because you were too stunned by her beauty! Might sound a lil cheesy... But bitches love that shit!

Just ask, "Would you please tell me how to properly pronounce your name?" If she says something simple like Eva, just say "No I meant your last name." HMMMM!!!! I'm gonna try that right there... I knew GD would lend an idiot a hand!  Yeah, sounds good. Just keep your fingers crossed it's not Smith or Jones... |

Once I get her name I'll ask her, but I've always thought she's either from Argentina or Romania. Yes, it's that hard to tell from her accent and her look. I lean more towards South American, but she sometimes sounds a LOT like the one Romanian girl I've ever known. |

How do I find out her name without coming across as a complete a-hole? I don't want to admit to her that I have no idea, so asking her is out. Be honest, just ask. I always use the Rodney approach in the Wizard of Id. Rodney has to introduce the King. He goes into this long winded, many paneled (must have been Sunday comics) promotion and then, "Without further adieu, I give you.......................,", turns to the King and says, "You may despise me for this but I've seemed to have forgotten your name." I always use that line to ask. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ (Rodney hires a dancer for the night's entertainment.

But no, being a dumbass, I've let this go on for over 3 months. It's more about not offending her now. She's a truly nice young lady, and I assume that she assumes I know her name. Which I do not. But I should. I honestly feel badly about this. Again, she says, "Hi Leatherface!", every day when I walk in to that office.. Well, not exactly "leatherface", though that would be much cooler than my name... lol.. but, yeah. And all I have is, "Hi"... or, "Hi, sweetie.."... |

Because among other things, if she is trying to strike up a conversation and you are not replying with her name, she may eventually decide that you are not interested. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ("Well in that event.......ummmmm, not Wanda Gershwitz?"--Archie finding out Wanda is linked to his case, (w,stte), "A Fish Called Wanda") |

There are no co-workers to ask. She's at that desk by herself. I don't work there, just pick up there every afternoon.
I'll make an attempt to get a pic. But regardless of her being gorgeous, it's just weird to not know her Christian name. I'll do the "can you pronounce your name for me?" thing. I think that's not a bad idea. And yes, I do believe that I was stunned the first time we met / were introduced. |

Get a Bluetooth headset you can hide in your mullet. Call me when you walk in the door, I'll tell you EXACTLY what to say.  But, seriously, you can't tell the difference between Argentinian and Romanian accents? And I thought I grew up in a small town. GL man. Really. Even in this college town I haven' t seen either. ETA: I think you're in your early 30s, so there is no way you are TOO old. This is the prime of our lives, man. |

But, seriously, you can't tell the difference between Argentinian and Romanian accents? And I thought I grew up in a small town. GL man. Really. Even in this college town I haven' t seen either. She's as white skinned as any girl from Iowa. Black hair, brown eyes. If I'd never known a Romanian I wouldn't have considered it. But some of her mannerisms, the way she phrases things, makes me suspect possibly eastern Europe. But sometimes I think, no, Argentina, maybe Brazil... Again, English is not her first language. And also again, unless she's a freak there's nothing gonna happen between us. I'm old enough to be her father. I just want to be able to address her by her name... lol |

Could you tell her you need her to sign the clipboard some time, then ask her her first and last name?  I wish every day to have something to deliver there, just for that reason.. But hasn't happened yet.. Hrrmm. you can't do it and say it is a random monthly spot check on pickups?
Could you call in and see if she answers the phone with "thank you for calling _______ this is ______"? |
