Being new to this forum and all things , sisters , why is eldritch nicknamed 'Von ' . I am sorry for my ignorance but if you dont ask you dont learn !
And it's Von himself calling you boring, not meBoring FAQ wrote:Where did you get the nickname 'Von' ?
It's the German version of the "van" before a Dutch family name, or the "de" in French. Hundreds of years ago it denoted aristocracy. I believe it was Tony James who first called me 'Von', for hanging out in Hamburg.
