I (first person masculine) am Douglas Koller (i don't know what da-me means at

-chan is a diminutive suffix used after truncated names, mostly by young girls
to name their female friends and their sempai (boyfriend).

By the way, my name would be kurisutofu guranshiru in katakana (if that's not
distorting then I don't know what it is :) ).
