    "Oh, yes, I do."
    "In flames and torment?"
    "Perhaps not quite that. They tell us it may be a permanent sense of loss."

    "Perhaps you've never lost anything of importance," Scobie said.

    Well, yes, I do like my name.

    However, I'm not one for mentioning it on a public forum.

    hmmm...sounds reasonable...

    I think that my real name means 'healer'

    My real name means "one who speaks truth". I think I live up to my name.

    I used to hate my name. I didn't think it fit me at all, and still don't, except now I usually go by Kate instead of Katrina. I used to think about changing it when I turned eighteen or going by my middle name (Ellen) when I got to college, but I realized my mother would get upset, and it's really not that big of a deal.
    Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not.

    Well bangla (the language I speak) IS traced back to sanskrit so you have some point there.
    I'm really proud of my name. It's a very rare name in Bangladesh. A little less rare in India, I suppose. But it's really difficult to find someone by that name in Bangladesh. And even in India I'm guessing there arent many that share my name.

    For this to work, you'd have to reveal yours. I don't want to flying blind here.
