Doesn't Don call her Bets sometimes??

Hi hotcho! Don does call her Betts. I have to go back and watch some of season one again, but, I think in a few episodes he also called her birdie?
I'm guessing her given name is Elizabeth, because Betsy and Betts can be short for that name.

he has called her betts, betsy & birdie.

Hi samg! Thanks for confirming the birdie name. I wonder why he called her that?

He hasn't called her Birdie in quite awhile. I like that nickname. I knew a gal once who went by the name Birdie. Her given name was Elizabeth, so there ya go!

Hi Glamara! Thank you, I never knew of the Birdie/Elizabeth connection.

.....hey babbot - funnyish story.....

my great aunt elizabeth, who was born around 1900, grew up on a farm with the nickname "bessie."

that is until she travelled to a famous nursing school, and the nickname changed to Betsy.

Later in life, she insisted on being called "Betty," or Elizabeth because it was more professional.

At the end of her life, she would only respond to Elizabeth or Miss ______.

I never met her but she sounded like a real pisser.

and i also missed the "birdie" reference. people on here are so good. i watch repeatedly and still miss stuff.

I'm not certain but I think he used the name Birdie in the "Shoot" episode. Appropriate, eh?

It could also be a reference to when she was a model and ate like a bird when he took her out on a date.

Yes - Don does call her "Bets" on the increasingly rare moments of shared warmth (aka when she gave him his engraved watch). This, just after he'd exchanged bodily fluids with the Queen Skank, Bobbie. Ewwwwwww

Hi Ritt! If I remember right, Don called Betty Birdie before that shooting episode. Who knew she would become the Annie Oakly of Ossining?

Hi Elizabeth Omps! I was thinking, wouldn't it be fun to guess what things Betty could have engraved on that watch?
For example: To my no good, lying, cheating, hubby...always, Betts!

.....Elizabeth, ugh....think I just threw up in my mouth a little....

Dry Manhattan, time for a Lux soap mouthwash!

let's all brush with Ipana toothpaste!

....remember Ipecac? do they even make that any more??

Here's a thought, maddicts (inhale & puff)...what if Don left behind his watch behind the last time he was with Bobbie. Maybe Jimmy found it and that is why he was so confident that Bobbie and Don were having an affair?

Oops, sorry for the double "behind" on the previous post. I must have Joan on my mind. ;o)
