My name is Ian, but I always hated my name growing up. Now though I am Ok with it.
My name is Fernando, and my last name is Felipe, which kinda sucks because it's also a name...
"Name?"
"Fernando"
"Last name?"
"Felipe"
"No no... LAST name..."

Sometimes I envy people with special or interesting names. Mine is very normal. Yes, I know when people keep asking the same questions about your name can be a pain in the ass but still. I envy you sometimes.
Roland would have understood.
Aw, but your name is so pretty, Letti.
Nikolett. It's so...feminine.

That reminds me of when people have the same last name twice.
e.g., Andrés Gonzalez Gonzalez.
I remember a kid from middle school named Anthony Anthony. People called him Tony Tony. Wow, that was a long time ago.
I knew a man whose last name was: "Notthere" - in Hungarian
When he went somewhere and he had to tell his name the women at the offices looked me him with angry eyes and said: "Hey, I know very will, sir where to write your name, please could you stop joking and could you tell me your last name?"
Roland would have understood.
So...how do we pronounce your name Liisa?My real name is Liisa, which derives from Elisabeth. Here in Finland there's a lot of double i's, a's and so on, which is why English-speaking people often get confused and call me Lissa or Lisa - hence they simply call me 'Lily'.
My whole name.. (get prepared!)
Liisa Riitta Kaarina Syväsalmi. eeeekkk.
(Syväsalmi means 'deep strait' in Finnish. don't even try to mention anything about salami. I've heard that one a lot.)
Maybe there your name is nothing special, but it's very special and unique here.My name is Fernando, and my last name is Felipe, which kinda sucks because it's also a name...

"Fernando"

"Felipe"

My sister once went to school with a boy who was called Mies ('Man' in Finnish), and the others kept saying 'What's up, Man?'. Poor boy. Cruel parents. =P

Perhaps this helps? ^^ (roll down) No idea how that sounds, as I'm deaf, but Finnish is mostly pronounced as it's written.
And hey, hey, Nikolett is SUPER beautiful name!

My first name starts with an S.
My middle name starts with an S.
My last name starts with an S.

Interestingly enough, I know how to pronounce that. All of that. If only because I study Finnish (among many other languages) in my spare time and got to know the pronunciations of different letter patterns. The "y" in Syväsalmi is pronounces like a "u" or double "o" sound, correct? Like "soo-vah-eh-sahl-mee"? I have the word Lohikäärme written down my right forearm. I'm sure you know what it means. I chose it specifically because of the meaning. I'm a quarter Swedish, but I liked the Finnish word better.My real name is Liisa, which derives from Elisabeth.

My real name is Candice Nicole Wozniak. I go by Candice Wozniak Dionysus, and will one day have it legally changed as such. I may keep the middle name, I may not. I certainly don't enjoy it much at this point, nor have I ever. But my father chose it, and I think it would hurt his feelings if I didn't keep it. Its what he would have named me if my mom hadn't insisted on being the one to choose the first name.

As for me

if the worlds gonna end then let's get it over with, i got shit to do
Ooh, I've always loved the name Nathaniel. I don't know why, but I always have.
And now that you mention it, I do think that makes the most sense for all S's for initials. [nodnod]

I indeed know what Lohikäärme means. Way cooler than Swedish Drake, isn't it?
Based on the names of my Norwegian friends, I'll guess the following:My first name starts with an S.
My middle name starts with an S.
My last name starts with an S.

"...neither the stupid jokes nor the easy surface emotions were the truth of Cuthbert Allgood."
I'm glad I did get it right. So then the whole thing would be pronounced "Lee-ee-sah Ree-ee-tah Kah-ah-ree-nah Soo-vah-eh-sahl-mee." Roughly. I'm very good with languages. The hardest language, in my opinion, is Korean. Compared with Finnish, or with Russian, or with even Japanese, trying to learn Korean is like being an amatuer mountain climber trying to take on Everest. I gave up on it. I never give up on a langauge, but I gave up on it.I indeed know what Lohikäärme means. Way cooler than Swedish Drake, isn't it?
Yeah, it is far, far cooler than Drake. Also, it was the one out of Norwegian, Swedish, and Finnish that was actually long enough to fit down my arm. Which helped. I'm going to get Dragons added on over time, twining around the rest of my arm, all in a tangle. Its going to look very awesome.
Maybe you can help me with learning Finnish? Little, basic things. Greetings, farewells, random bits of general conversation... Sentence structure. Thats the one I have a problem with, is it similar to English sentence structure? Or is it more like Japanese or French?
I have to go to sleep now, so I can actually wake up for work in the morning. You should PM me, and we should talk more. But for now, its lights out for me.
