Althought you say we should finish just something extra

---

First and least, I do not live in Spain, my sister does and she tells me it's cold there, really cold to our standards, both me and here are Peruvian, here we are entering summer and it's getting hotter but the average is "mild with unpredictable undesirable extremes, cold shadows but suffocatingly hot light-zones"... Felicidad is not a common name but it does means that, then there is the uncommon surname "Alegre" or "Alegría" which means "happy" and "Happiness" respectively... And as name there are; Alicia (Spanish form of Hebrew "Aliza" which means "joy" or of the German "Adalheidis" which means "noble kind/sort/type"), Leticia (Spanish form of late latin "Laetitia" which means "joy, happiness"), Nanda (It's and Indian name but at least here in Peru similiar names are easily adopted, phonetically it matches Spanish surnames), Winston (Ok, it's English and means "Joy Stone" but here in Peru it has arrived as a name for there is certain tendency of pretending that through alienation a superior status would be achieved, at least nominally, ironically those who use this names with that in mind use alternate spellings out of ignorance such as "Jhon" or "Yon" for "John" and names like "Esmiders" pretending to be the surname "Smithers" can be seen, in this way they reveal themselves as both ignorant and alienated, the first thing which is totally comprehensible and no reason for segregation, but the second, it's a lack of pride for what is one's own that does deserves some reaction; on the other hand those who they pretend to equal with such names tend to use Spanish names mostly, unless they have a non-Spanish surname and/or non-Spanish bloodline), Abigail ("my father is joy" is an uncommon name but can be seen with a non-English pronunciation which I would represent as; "Ah-bi-Gah-eel"), Fortunato ("fortunate" in Italian and/or Latin), Felix (popularity might have gone down due to "Felix the cat"), etc.
