In all of the Spanish classes i've had we *never* did this at all. I kinda
felt like I missed out. But, my name doesnt get mangled much.

BUT, i just asked a friend who speaks spanish what she thinks would be a
good name for me, and she likes eithe Cesar, or Javier. So, i declared my
pseudonym will be: Cesar Javier Jaime García.

(my real middle name is James, so I kept it ;))

your own. In Japani could only do my name in katakana: Barii Garushia
