...
There has been questions regarding the meaning of my name as well as the spelling/misspelling of it (I've nothing against any type of misspelling as long as it is non-offensive). There has also been questions as to how it is pronounced and I have believed that it is obvious. I wish I knew how to write in phonetics.
I generally pronounce it "ishte mes" or "isht ims" or somewhere in that region.
...
Camp is an expression. Think it came about in the 50-60ies somewhere. Susan Sontag mentions it in a book I've got somewhere or not...
OO
I had another vague association about a camp sitting in the back of my head but camp wasn't in it although it was a camp; Greenham Common. I think it was a no-males-allowed camp opposing something; maybe nuclear war machines...
Mine's spelt "EvilZakkie", but it's pronounced "Lamolompa Hemderphil Zabberty-Snort".
LOL, EvilZakkie.
Eion, I always pronounced yours "Ee-oin"
I pronounced Luai_lashire's the way she said it was pronounced... (BTW, what does it mean in your language?)
Energia, I always pronounced yours, "e NER - jee - ah"
It doesn't get any easier, in the English language.
Chris, Marsh.
STOP IT!!!!!
It's 3am and I'm trying to wind down enough to sleep (AFFing about and packing books) and I read THAT!!!
I practically strangled myself trying not to wake the street.
No good, can't hold it in any longer....
Waahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhaahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!
Woohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoohoo!!!!!!!
ROTFLMEFAO*!!!!!
(*The 'e' is for exhausted, not extremely
)
...And how do you pronounce that? *grins*
Well, you can pronounce my name any way you feel.
-make suggestions!

Kind of like "It's spelt DocMartin but pronounced WobblyFruitBear"?? That kind of thing??
(Mine is Nyahn-Chahn -- strong emphasis on both syllables but slightly more on the first. And nya in Japanese is pronounced similar to that little kid's taunt. nyah-nyah-nyah. Nyan is the sound a cat makes.)
Eoin, I've always imagined like Eowyn -- or something similar.
.... Off topic for a moment, I would like to mention that if you never hear from me again it is because I became so deeply engrossed in playing with the thingy in EvilZakkie's signature that I don't have time to post anything. (what is it, anyway?)
*grins* I wondered how long it would take people to notice that...
It's a little flash program I invented - when you move the mouse over it, it makes ripples...
Soccer "sock her"
Freak "frEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEk"
I guess the a is silent
How do you pronounce 248 though? Lol.
Mine is like J'Lo, only Ky (rhymes with fly) and low four/fore/for.
Sort of like F--K or Suck.
Just with a P.
I thought this one was like "because" only spelled differently... not really; Puck is a character in a Shakespeare play, I think...
For a long time I would silently spell out Grizeldatee as Grissel Daytea...
Had I dared a guess I'd have said it's either from The Storm or from the one you mentioned...
Through the forest have I gone,
But Athenian found I none,
On whose eyes I might approve
This flower's force in stirring love.
Well a puck is a kind of sprite.
...In Midsummer Nights Dream he's also my favourite character. (Though not my favourite character out of everything.)
I like best:
If we spirits have offended
Think but this and all is mended
That you have but slumbered here
While these visions did appear...
