English (and, more so, > Portuguese-derived) names are notorious for being pronounced > differently from the way they're spelt. So, I would send across my > surname as Noronya rather than Noronha (pls correct me if wrong). > RESPONSE: Used to have a big problem, every time we exited Saudi, my wife's name Lily was translated to Leila in Arabic and until we had cottoned on we had to wait ages while the man figured it out. My name is simple jebril! -- DEV BOREM KORUM Gabe Menezes.
