@BBCRadio3 @clemencybh Good morning, Clemen*C*! I heard u call urself "Clemmie" n thought it lacked the arresting grace of the 3 syllables.

@richjm612 @BBCRadio3 @clemencybh When her name is announced it should be in full and when she says it herself, it can be the diminutive.

@richjm612 @BBCRadio3 @clemencybh It is a name that lends itself to the title of a poem, IMHO. I wonder if others have tried this.

@richjm612 @BBCRadio3 @clemencybh Driving me mad I can't remember name of poem that I think Larkin/Betjeman wrote about a girl with 3 names.

@richjm612 @BBCRadio3 @clemencybh The name of this woman was something like Jean Foster Grant or Ruth Pennington Smythe ....

@richjm612 @BBCRadio3 @clemencybh It was Miss Joan Hunter Dunn I was thinking of! https://t.co/MARMZGkIvB

I suppose what I find so striking about her is her wholesomeness and niceness, reminding me irresistibly of Julie Andrews, all the more noticeable in early 21st century Britain for its rarity. I cannot imagine Clemency having a secret hoard of piercings and tattoos anywhere on her person.
