Summary: 


I've been Norman Ramsey all my life. I like being Norman Ramsey. I can't
conceive of wanting to be (called) anything else. It always sort of
surprises me to discover that there are people (almost always women) who
want to or are willing to change their names just because they're getting
married. (I do, however, sympathize with my former colleague Michael Boring,
who changed his last name to Clayton).
