Actually, I didn't know how at first because John had metioned it to us and it sounded much different than what it really is!)<BR/><BR/>Fortunately for me, I can always try to conteract the mis-pronounciation by placing an 'accent' over the "E". But sometimes it's hard to do so on some computer programs, ect.<BR/><BR/>I can see why Carey has to spell both...they both have unique spellings! But that's okay...who says we have to have "common" names anyway? <BR/><BR/>I couldn't wait to change my common maiden last name. (Gomez) Now, I feel kinda unique despite the headache.<BR/><BR/>I'm sure it feels kinda cool that nobody has your name when they call your name off a list.trazomfreakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06185941863154677354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17460992.post-1151504984074860822006-06-28T07:29:00.000-07:002006-06-28T07:29:00.000-07:00i don't read you blog enough. I also have trouble ...i don't read you blog enough. I also have trouble with people pronouncing my last name. John's known me for years and he still calls me whatever comes out of his mouth. you could ask him 3 times and it would sound different each time. <BR/><BR/>Another funny thing is Carey always has to spell out her first and last name for everything since we got married.urBenLAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11499834083895606530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17460992.post-1150945489366858962006-06-21T20:04:00.000-07:002006-06-21T20:04:00.000-07:00Alex: Yeah, I know.

Did they skip me?"<BR/><BR/>Tiff: Yes, but I gotta tell ya...it was hard! I feel better now. I hope I continue. I agree with you on MJ. I've always thought he was great. Too bad now.trazomfreakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06185941863154677354noreply@blogger.com
