* EmbarrassingMiddleName: Sigrid
* EmoTeen
* FeminineWomenCanCook: Of all things, Allyson's turned out to be quite a more than decent cooker. And it's actually the one of the only thing she does better than her sister. She's somewhat embarrased by that, though, since she seems to think it clashes with her feminist ideals.

* TeamMom
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Tomboy to Sarah's girly girl.

* TheUnfavorite: The way she thinks of herself.
