... semkana?
Emkana is a combination of parts of my name, and my daughters' names. So really it would only be fair to put ds in there somewhere. Or doesn't it matter anyhow and I'm being stupid? Or should I change to something original - but what?

Opinions please!

I like Semkana, and least you would still be recognisable.

Unlike the bus load of trolls we have in here tonight and have had all day.

sorry emkana -

I did nearly post "actually you might want to look that up before you change your name" but I thought it might be patronising.

it does mean knob cheese, but it sounds really good, don't you think?
