cameo

cameo

1) a delicately carved relief on a jewel or plaque

2) a specific type of jeweler who creates personalized cameos

3) a neutral or offensive, depending on the situation, term for people that are physically healthy, but of a very pale skin complexion, kind of like Draco Malfoy from the Harry Potter series.

4) a specialized jewelery store/business where personalized cameos are produced

5) an offensive term for a female who is so emotionally sensitive that she will literally faint at the site of a bouquet of flowers (sort of like Marie Antoinette's friend the Princesse de Lamballe)

6) (as a proper female name) short for either Cameron (as in Cameron Diaz) or Carmen (as in Carmen Electra)
two people in conversation:

person a) my sister is an art student. she wants to be a cameo later, maybe open her own cameo place.

person b) your sister is already is already a cameo.. She looks like, I dare say, a female version of Draco Malfoy

person a): lol. you forgot to mention that my sister's name is Carmen
