I'd simply pass a calling card with Dilwyn printed on it, then watch them slaughter my name. I haven't decided if that would be masochism or sadism... Dave Actually, neither's original, or one from the other AFAIK. It was Hebrew originally. The US one might be named after the Welsh one if it was a British immigrant who founded it, though I doubt it. In Wales, Bethesda is a common name for a Christian chapel. It derives from the Bible and means House Of Mercy. Not that you'll ever get any here, after the great Penrhyn quarry strikes of the early 1900s there are still families here who don't speak because of that sorry period. Even to this day, because of the A5 road passing through Bethesda on the historic dividing line of the Penrhyn estate, to this day pubs only exist on one side of the road! Now that's progress... According to John Jones in his book Welsh Place Names, 1996, the original place name of this village was Cilfoden. Its present name derives from the Congregational chapel built there in 1819. As for the US version, according to Wikipedia: It takes its name from a local church, the Bethesda Meeting House (1820, rebuilt 1849), which in turn took its name from Jerusalem's Pool of Bethesda. Just blame it all on religion! Dilwyn Jones ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm

Having just returned from the Caribbean islands and found one of my taxi drivers in St Vincent was called Llywelyn...(yes, though black himself, he explained his grandad was a white Welsh mariner who married a local woman and settled there). I was a bit concerned that the locals might not understand my Welsh accent. In practice, it was the scousers and geordies who needed the interpreter. Guess who usually had to interpret for some of the locals trying to communicate with some from England ;-) Actually, mispronunciations of my name are rare.

It also had me going for a while looking at the ICE MICE screens seeing 'by D Jones' only to find later the name of the author was David in the documentation anyway.
