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. :-) -- ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-Name: NikTaylor42
