"Hey, if you switched two letters in your name it'd spell, um... brain!"
Got phone call today, from someone wanting to speak to Amanua.
I was all set to explain that they had the wrong number when it occured to me that they may have read a 'D' as 'U' and maybe it was me they were looking for, when she said: 'No, I'm sure I have the right number.'
So, I tried to expain what may have happened and suggested that if the last name was mine then it was some sort of typo. She very grudgingly accepted that this might be the case but then made the fatal error of calling me Amanua again.
I have a golden rule: Never argue with an idiot. They will just drag you down to their level and they have more experience down there.

But how exotic it would be to be named Amanua. You must say it flamboyantly, of course. "Alo, sweeties! It is I, Amanua, here to suck your blood!"
D and A are also only two keys apart. Good point about the dragging down part.
Hmm, know what you mean... I get 'Conun' all the time, as if I were some sort of relationship in a convent.
SW, hmm, I like it. and I never really liked the name amanda anyway.
SJ, the potential is there for all sorts of names, amanxa is good, what about amanqa?
and hey Conyn, you get used to it
