Well, you can always just *spell* it Spanishly, Hiun Ja Li. :-) I
don't know how it would be French-ized.
In Spanish, I occasionally used the pseudonym _Nico Sastre_ (Sastre
means "tailor"). And once I jokingly referred to a teacher named
Johnson as _Juanhijo_ (yes, I know that's not legitimate Spanish - that
would be _Hijo de Juan_) - it took my Spanish teacher a good half-minute
to realize who I was talking about. :-)
