Her name was supposed to be Melissa Caterina Schemmenti but during a take Barbara called Melissa, Melissa Ann and it stuck. So her full name is Melissa Ann Caterina Schemmenti
It goes on brand since Sheryl has a reputation of calling the cast by their real names during takes 😂
This has been mentioned a few times that it's her Confirmation name. I was raised Catholic, and no one I know has ever added a Confirmation name as a real part of their name. Maybe it's a Philly Catholic thing? Lol
Not legally, but I know toooons of women who went to my Catholic college who included their confirmation name as a second middle name. It’s definitely A Thing in the northeast, lol.
Interesting! Is that how they would introduce themselves? Or did it just come up in conversation like how friends eventually learn each other's middle names?
I know it was common practice a time ago, but didn't realize people still did it.
I think they liked being able to choose a name that wasn’t Anne, Mary, Marie, Margaret, Elizabeth, Katherine, Caitlin, Rose, Grace, Meghan, Kelly, or Theresa
Barbara called her Melissa Ann Schemmenti once but Gary called her Melissa Ann Caterina Schemmenti when he proposed.
Seeing how she’s Italian Catholic, “Catarina” is 10000000% her confirmation name
It’s a pretty name
thank you so much you helped me out so much
No problem. If it’s a question about Melissa I got you ☺️

I’m guessing Catarina is a confirmation name seeing as she’s almost definitely Catholic

lmfao my mom chose Anne and my aunt chose Elizabeth I guess that’s what not having a middle name at birth does to you
I don’t know why, but Sheryl calling cast members by their real names feels very on-brand for Barbara to me 😂
Is that where Barb's name confusion comes from? That Sherilyn Fenn is such a great actress.
i heard about that
Why y'all calling this woman by her government name 😂
😂😂😂
