Wendy BooydeGraaff: Hello, my name is Wendy BooydeGraaff. You pronounce my last name Booy, as in boy, not a girl, de as in the letter D, and Graaff as in the math diagram: BooydeGraaff. My husband and I put our last names together when we got married, so now we both have an extra long name that often gets misspelled.
Growing up, my last name was Booy. People thought that was funny because I have all girls in my family; six sisters, no brothers, and our last name was Booy.
