So, it turns out my first thought about Grace's reaction was correct. Luckily, Grace was wrong.

I love Jay's reaction, and it's neat that it gave Susan and Jay something to bond over. I was actually pretty suspicious of Jay when she first started showing up, but now thanks to this page I like her; hopefully she doesn't wind up an antagonist in the future!

My mother and her mother both preferred using their middle names.  

Susan associates her first name with unpleasant memories involving her father.  

Is the desire to change your name, or to use elements of your name in an unusual manner, similar to Tedd's transformation fantasies?  An attempt to be someone other than the you everyone else says you should be?

I believed that Grace's startled reaction was a sudden memory from the shared dream. Possible dead-naming never occurred to me. I guess I'm officially old.
