ArchivesA Question For Pauliina...
or anyone else who might know.
Pauliina, your mentioning that you live in Friedberg reminded me of a Finnish acquaintance (female) I had when I lived there (Friedberg) briefly in the very late 1960s. She was working as an au pair (nanny)at the time, and later married another acquaintance (American) and moved to the US.
Her name was Raili, pronounced "ray-lee" (not sure if it was her formal name or nickname), but I can't find it in any of the Finnish name listings. Any idea what it means?
Thanks!
- Da.

Hi Daividh! Small world :0)
How did you like Friedberg? We´ve been living here for about three years now, and before that in Giessen. We like it here, mainly because most of our friends live here, too, but we have talked about moving. I´d like to go back to Finland.
Raili is a rather common name in the generation born in the 1940´s + 1950´s. I have no idea of it´s meaning though, sorry, but I´ll try to check it out and get back to you later on.
