aa meetings
I know a few people who add a last name, but they are decidedly in the minority. Most use first names only.
Heh, that sometimes leads to interesting nicknames like "Lollipop Joe" or "Principal Jim" to tell one Joe or Jim from another.
I just posted this link on another thread about What to Expect at Your First AA Meeting. It gives a lot of explanations about how things are "done" at meetings and why.

Net net, go to an open meeting, tell them it's your first meeting and you're there to listen.. That's it... Listen for a month, 6 months.. I'd suggest going to many different meeting till you find the group you feel comfortable with.. Read about AA on the web, history, big book, 12 steps.. If the program isn't for you no worries.. Choose a different program but get a plan together that works for you!! It's really a personal journey! I just want you to succeed!! I'm no saint, I battle with it every day!
