Thank you for this! At the risk of sounding terribly "Hurr durr look at me", I kinda had a hunch that this would be how it goes. (The study of culture and its expressions (language, art, conceptions of health, etc.) is kinda what I'm trained in so yeah)
I was thinking normal speech for Deena would be something like: "Aw, bless your heart, hon, you don't have to be so formal! Mrs. Johnston was my mother, you call me Auntie Deena." Sound okay?
PS Sunday nights I usually have a block of time where I'm busy from 7 to 9 my time so that is why my response is delayed. Supper and heading out and all that.
