[Magdalen] Maddie's pub

I was amused that your website is  called Maddie's!!
 
I was amused at the name because  my wife is Magdalena, shortened to  Maddy 
and even Mad (but only one person in the world is brave enough to call her  
that).
 
In fact she has here surname in her  Christian name (MagDALEna)
 
We were in Israel in 2014 and came to  Magdalena's Restaurant on the Sea of 
Galilee and Maddy jokingly said: Hey that's  my restaurant"
 
The owner was told by our Guide what Maddy  had said and said to her : 
"Your meal is free on the house"
 
On top of that  I have a parish called Magdalen (it's full name is 
Wiggenhall  St Mary Magdalene but as you could guess it is called Magdalene) 
 
Now who said: What's in a  name!!!
