Thanks for the input everyone.  I am encouraged that someone else was able to 
duplicate my query.  I ran relationships a number of ways and the problem 
persisted.  I will go back to the name list and look at all my italic entries, 
but that won't catch the ones that I found the correct gender identification 
though, I will probably have to simply go through each one.
They didn't show up as a problem either.

Thanks again.

Donna
