Does anyone know what Ms Dunne's character's real name is? Is "Vinnie" short for something?

Lavinnia.

I actually knew two "Vinnies"

The first was named for the character in the play, and the second one had the name "VINTON" as her middle name. As there were already five other "Annes" in our class, she went by the name of Vinnie....
