Here's the paragraph I was referring to:
As for my own name, thank you for your compliment. My mother always pronounced it "nah-NEE-ah", but I somehow suspect that P.L. is going to tell me that it really should be pronounced "nah-NAY-ah". :) Whatever the case, I call myself simply "Nan" most of the time, to avoid having to 'splain things (except here, where people take a genuine interest in names). I'm named after a Persian goddess.

I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every moment of it.
