Mine's Siiri, pronounced something like "See-re" with, uh, a "rolling r" (I looked that up at Wikipedia :D). It's a pretty usual name for little girls these days, but it wasn't so usual when I was born. It's developed from Sigrid and this web site I found says Sigrid means victory & beautiful. Hehe.

I got a boring one. Nicole... a little dull.

Mariphaba · Madame Maribel

ooh i like both of those!

and there's nothing wrong with having normal names, at least they don't get butchered. Everyone knows how Nicole is said. Maribel on the other hand. I'm sure Siiri gets butchered a lot too.

Starlene · Veteran Member

I think Nicole's a pretty name, and so is Maribel (never heard of that name before, but it's lovely :) ).

Elphabatobe · Veteran Member

Well thank you. I think both Maribel and Siiri are lovely names too, they sound exotic and exciting. I wish I had something a little different though. There were always two Nicole's in my classes, so I ended up going by my last name. My sister's lucky, she has a name you very rarely hear... Jenae.

My name is Luke. Thanks to Star Wars, everyone on Earth knows it.

Mine's Kyndall.

My parents like the letter 'y', so my younger siblings and I all have a 'y' in either our first or middle name. It's pretty much Kendall, but with a 'y' instead of an 'e'.

Mariphaba · Madame Maribel

so it's pronounced the same?
I like that, that's really cool.

Elphaba the Delirious · Veteran Member

Well...not really. It's pronounced sort of like kindle (as in kindle a fire) but with more of an 'al' (like the a in car) sound at the end.

Misspellings of my name include: Kendall, Kendal, Kindel, Kindle, Kindal, Kyndel, Kendil, Kyndal, Kindol...and several others that people in their infinite creativity have come up with.

Critter · Old Reg

I have an easy common name which Im not overly fond of on the internet. Hence why I use the alias's

A Wonderful Obsession · Old Reg

Well, I suppose "Critter" works just fine. But out of curiosity, why did you pick the Tibetan Fox?

Critter · Old Reg

I love the tibetan fox. Everything about it. The way it moves, the shape of its head and body and its face and everything its just awesome. Its sort of unusual looking, I think it looks really clever though. Like a wise creature.

A Wonderful Obsession · Old Reg

Yes, I can certainly understand that. Believe it or not, before seeing your profile picture I had never seen one.

Critter · Old Reg

They are quite rare. Theres a really small amount of video footage of them and my profile picture is one of the only pictures they have.

A Wonderful Obsession · Old Reg

I for one had never realized they had foxes in Tibet. confuse

Apparently they do. aww
