Mmm... Waffles.
But yes, I have to say to the OP that situation is odd indeed.
And Lally, I knew it was a Welsh name, I also found it ironic since of her class and all. Cerridwyn has a root of Cerdd which is poem. *Nodnod* It's only fitting.

I've always loved the way some Arabic names rolled off the tongue. They're just Magical. I don't know why. In my mind, ^ irrefutable proof Dwagin is really a girl IRL. >_> ....And she says to that: *pastes* Dwagin says: I think its because Rras is too manly, and their weeners would shrink if he was played by a girl. Dwagin says: so they have to assume otherwise <_< _________________

You forgot the lead-in. Need the lead in.
Merrien: says since everyone mistakes you for a boy on the forums.... I think it's sexism b/c they think girls can't like dragons. purely speculative of course.
Dwagin: I think its because Rras is too manly, and their weeners would shrink if he was played by a girl. so they have to assume otherwise

All my names are ridiculously simple. >>
Although.. I have to agree now saying Yossarin the correct way instead of westernized.. it is so sexy sounding. lol

I've always pronounced it Yossarian.
(damn, the strike through of the 'a' isn't very clear. Ah well.)

Pretty well, really. Although Finnish names and words are awfully difficult to describe with English pronunciation, I can find nothing closer but maybe Tuo-mas. A bit like when you say "duo" only with a T in the beginning and a tad faster. _________________  UCE THIS, YOU COW.

Calin Katar is a name given to your character if you use the random name generator in Knights of the Old Republic.
I'm going to make a character with a name that in another language translates to "Tormaks Mum".

For giggles, I'll ask how you would pronounce the name of a charcter of mine from 2nd Edition D&D:
Jaiesdra Tilrani.

Never seen anyone with a name like Guye Valentino. Seriusly never even seen a Guy it's strange but nice to have an unused name.
