I agree with both of your comments; however I want to point out that there is a Wendy. Dave Thomas named the restaurant after his daughter, Melinda Lou (her nickname was Wendy).

Sorry for the poor choice of imaginary character, delano! Thanks for pointing out that there is a girl named "Wendy" from whom Dave got the name for his restaurant - it really doesn't change the point, though. There is no "Wendy" in the kitchen whipping up burgers for hungry customers. Wendy didn't spend years perfecting her recipes, etc, etc. In retrospect, however, I wish I had chosen Big Boy for the example instead: http://www.bigboy.com/legend.asp

Ohhh Boy!
