My mother knew some people who named their new daughter Fiona and pronounced it Fie-ona instead of Fee-ona. Not good. She also once met an Heloise who thought she was a Hell-oyz. And I knew a teacher once who called out the names on her class list at the beginning of the year, got no response from Yvonne Someone, reached the end and said "Is there anyone here whose name isn't on the list?" And of course, up went a hand, and its owner said "Yes, Miss, me! I'm Why-vonny!"

There should be more nice, nerdy people like us in the world ...
