that's awesome!
one question Asminha, is the "j" pronounced like a "j/g" or "y"? sometimes I get mixed up!  also, what does your name mean? 'tis very pretty! Last edited by Chrissy; 04-13-2005 at 03:29 AM. |

thanks, everyone!
and to Asminha-I like your story! My full name is Christen, pronounced kristen (bearer of Christ/anointed one) but hardly anyone gets it right. I am forever being called "christian" or "christine"  So I shortend it to Chrissy.

Chrissy, The confusion of your name leads to 2 different things!! Chrisitian which is a masculin name, and Christine which is a feminine name. May be the way you prunounce it can make people think that it's Christine, but not Christian!! |
