FAN MAIL #23!

Dear Zen Angel:


Hey there!
Just entered your website for the first time, and I must say it's fab, I had a few good laughs at reading all these bizarre names. I come from Malta, a tiny island in the Mediterranean sea, and though we're a very little population, the names people come up with over here are just as hilarious. Well, not having exactly a nice, normal name myself, Ariane ( French - don't know why my mum chose it ), I tend to be more understanding, but mine at least is easier to pronounce. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that some unfortunate boy here was given the name QUINLIN, and that's about stupidest name I ever heard for a boy, had I not heard of the name CATHRIELLE for a boy too ( doesn't Elle mean 'she' in French, and on its own is quite a nice name for a girl ). Some dumb parent also named her little bundle of joy KIRSTEN, - a boy . Anyway, keep up the good work, and just wanted to tell you that although to you Americans the name Saviour seems really dumb, well, here in our island and also in Italy, it is quite a common name : translated into Maltese it's Salvu, and in Italian Salvo, both quite common in both countries. On official documents it appears as Saviour.
Really fab work, keep it up


Ariane

Dear Ariane:

Thanks for all the names! I am humbled to think I have fans (ok, a fan) in beautiful Malta.

Thanks for reading!
