I was reading it wrong...
How about applying gender improperly...like Agent Haun sounds like a guy name to me...even though your siggy says Rachel!

Or Kiwideus looks like Kiwi-dee-us, but I say it Kwid-ee-us. Or Snosrap is Snow-strap to me! LOL!

I say U-Games for ugaimes, too!

Is Pombina pronounced Pom bean ah or Pom bin ah? I say Pom bean ah!

But yea, Im lil-leah."

I never pronounce the numbers, and I think of your name as Lilly aye ah...maybe because it is Big-Cat-Fan's daughter's name, and so pretty! Or I'm pronouncing her daughter wrong, too! LOL!

I'm glad I have an easy name, too. It was my nickname when I was 2...Becky Boo Boo! LOL! So when I started on-line, and most sites have variations of Becky already taken...I regressed to age 2!

Mine isn't very clever. I signed up late one night while waiting for my cat to give birth and the best I could come up with was my user name from work. So it's K. Luchetta rather than Clue-Chetta.

Sheesh....glad mine hasn't been picked on yet. I don't think its a confusing one though.

I also say Fawn instead of Fwan. My brain must switch it around on me.

Oh and ugaimes, I always read as Ua-games. Don't know why I add that A in there.

I've always said Fwan, but have to confess to guilt over ugaimes...I've always said that `You-games' in my head!


And don't think you haven't been picked on!! I always call my puppies `Mooch' and now they get called `MoochNNoodles' instead cos it sounds so cute! There's a few that I don't get right - Dicknleah I always says as `dick-n-lee' in my head.

Mine's easy-peasy (and boring-oring!)
