Im sorry for the randomness but I keep pronouncing natalia like na-tail-eeya Since there is an added a. And it sounds so much like genitalia. Do you mind if I call you genitalia?

lol, I remember you typing in chat once that it was something like ng-yeeah.. I swear I still need to hear you say it once before I'll actually understand the correct way. Like.. I still don't know how "Nguyen" is pronounced. sad.gif

I think they say "shay" cause of the "Chey" part. =/ Kind of like pronouncing "grey", even though that's the incorrect spelling of it.
