my name
one that has always pissed me off is "my name is called". there really is no need for it. if you're called susan, then you would say "my name is susan", NOT "my name is called susan".
your name isn't called anything, YOU are called susan.

I'm all confused.
I thought my name was Mike. If I'm Susan, does this mean I have to have boobies now? Cos I don't like boobies, I like willies. Can I pick a different name?

but there's nothing wrong with boobies.
or willies.

Lewis Carrol didn't like it either.
"The name of the song is called "HADDOCKS' EYES."'

`Oh, that's the name of the song, is it?' Alice said, trying to feel interested.

`No, you don't understand,' the Knight said, looking a little vexed. `That's what the name is CALLED. The name really IS "THE AGED AGED MAN."'

`Then I ought to have said "That's what the SONG is called"?' Alice corrected herself.

`No, you oughtn't: that's quite another thing! The SONG is called "WAYS AND MEANS": but that's only what it's CALLED, you know!'

`Well, what IS the song, then?' said Alice, who was by this time completely bewildered.

`I was coming to that,' the Knight said. `The song really IS "A-SITTING ON A GATE": and the tune's my own invention.'
