Late to the party, probably the day after now, so a belated happy birthday.

That is all well and good, but her pronunciation of "octopodes" is incorrectly stressed.

Octopussies, also known as catfish.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

I used to think it should be "octopii" with a double ii ending. Then I found out it wasn't and was terribly disappointed! I wanted plurals to be like: hippopotamii (large grey quadruped), crocii (a small flower), Lexii (a luxury Japanese car)
Any more suggestions?

... of designing an app that has a significant and complex database back-end is coming up with a usable, yet maintainable schema... The next hardest part is presenting a UI that wraps the schema in a way that makes sense to joe-blow-idiot end user, and doesn't impede usability.

The art of database storage is to keep it simple and renundant. Raw data should be stored as raw as it gets in. Every processing should do the app.
Be consequent in separate processing code and UI code. I had to re-write a lot because of that problems.
Our coming project will have a shot with the MVVM architecture. I am fine with that because I am NOT the lead programmer. 
Press F1 for help or google it.

If it is complex enough that the experienced designer has concerns with implementation design then using formal designs such as architecture with a minimal data model would seem to be warranted.
