What's in a name? My Mother named me Rosemary. My given name is Nachtigall.   
We added Friesen when I married T. D. (Tim). As an elementary school teacher for  years I was 'Mrs. Rose'.  Today I use the English translation of my last name when I speak or write at the gardens. It's simpler and I like it.  ~ Rosemary Nightingale
