naming
This is a pretty cool site. It shows you how to pronounce names. I'm trying to figure out how my name is actually supposed to be pronounced. I have a feeling I've been saying it wrong all my life...my aunt just told me it should sound like 'kroose' -- as in rhyming with 'goose', not 'krooz', which sounds like 'cruise' and always results in people writing my name as "Cruz" when they hear it and see me, since apparently I look Hispanic. This site doesn't have my name, so I had to write to the founder! Stay tuned ...
