On the blog today: It’s the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, and my mother’s name day: www.conviviobookworks.com/blog/buon-on.... We’ll have to pull her ears today! It’s your name day, too, if you are a Carmela or a Camille or a Cammie or a Millie or Mella.

Buon Onomastico to Mom and All the Carmelas | Book of Days
If there are Carmelas in your life––and there may be even if you don’t realize it––today is their name day, their Onomastico, as we say in Italian, for July 16 brings the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. It’s my mom’s name day today. She was named Carmela, after her grandmother, but we only hear her answer to that at the dentist’s office or doctor’s office. Usually she goes by Millie, and when I say you may not even realize you have a Carmela in your life, this is why: there are so many variants of the name. You might have a Millie, like I do, or you might have a Cammie or a Camille. My dad would sometimes call Mom “Mildred,” which was usually as a joke, but then (go figure) he actually put “Mildred” on his retirement plan papers at work.
