To late, Juulie is Estonian.
I guess in Estonian, "too" is spelled "to".
Um, umm, ummm, what was that post about spelling...

Is Juulie, herself, Estonian? Or is just her name?

Don't know Juulie, being 2800 miles +/- away I don’t think I ever will , so I don’t know if she is or is not Estonian but the name is.

I'm not Estonian, although I had a friend in high school that was. I changed the spelling of my name when I got tired of being "the other Julie Downs." Downs isn't that common of a last name, but everywhere I go there are at least two or three other Julie Downs' around and we always seem to get mixed up. When I heard a rumor that there was a ref in Georgia named Julie Downs, I said Enough. My sister-in-law, who is yet another Julie Downs also changed the spelling of her name-- it is now Julei. It's a little difficult in the short run, but has served the purpose of making me unique. Now I just have to live up to the notoriety. At least I can spell.

Cool
Reminds me of when comedian Andy Dick was asked by Jay Leno if he ever considered changing his name. He said he was thinking of changing it to Andy Penis.

Juulie: we consider you to be unique regardless of how you spell your name.

A loooooong time ago I saw an interview of Frank Zappa on TV. He was talking about his kid's names: Moon Unit, Dweezle (?), Ommit. He said his son Ommit had problems with other kids calling him Ommit Vomit, so one fine day he just started calling himself Rick. And the other kids started calling him Rick the Dick.

I have absolutely nothing to add to any of the latest "discussions" (other than quite a bit of laughter), so I thought i would add a comment made by a partner at halftime of a game this past weekend...I travelled quite a distance to work with two officials I had never even seen before, and at halftime we had several issues we needed to discuss. Before I could bring them up however, one of my partners said:

"DJ, I notice you sprint a lot out there on the court. Is that something we are supposed to do, or is that just you showing off?"

As I was taking a drink of water at the time, I was quite proud of my quick reflexes...I was able to turn my head before I spit the water all over the place, thus soaking the wall and not him...

Anyway, just thought I would add something...

My mom still tells the story about how I came home from kindergarten one day in tears after learning what my name rhymes with. . .
