"A truthful page is childhood's lovely face,
Whereon sweet Innocence has record made--
An outward semblance of the young heart's grace,
Where truth, and love, and trust are all portrayed." ~Benjamin Penhallow Shillaber

Pure joy reigns over her lovely face!

This is beautiful. It's so much fun. The colors are great, the angle is wonderful, and she's just adorable. How do you say her name?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Jittoku In reply to tracy-Me [2008-04-30 00:59:15 +0000 UTC]

Thanks

Her name is pronounced exactly as it's spelled, since it's a phonetic representation of Japanese.
But, if you're unfamiliar with the convention used, it's still difficult.

So... think /Mee-Khan/ or perhaps more simply, it rhymes with correctly pronounced "pecan".

Her name translates literally as "Orange" or "winter fruit", since she was born in November

tracy-Me In reply to Jittoku [2008-04-30 01:37:20 +0000 UTC]

Aww. Cute.

I thought that's how it would be pronounced. My cat's name is definitely Mika (said the same minus the "n"), which is why I asked.
