davienne

Wednesday, June 17, 2009

OK I was going to blog about my new Blackberry, until I saw Suet's comment on the tagboard..

"eh huiwen, is your name davienne??" - A question I get so often.

No, my name is not Davienne.

Who is Davienne?
Davienne is a name created by myself a long time ago, for gaming purposes.

^ This is Davienne, High Elf Cleric of the 70th Season, in the world of Everquest II.

Of course I have many Daviennes out there but she's the chioest and longest one I've played.

Later on, I came to realise that looking for usernames that didnt end with numbers (eg: huiwen1987) was difficult.

One very good example is my blog and my twitter. Plus many other sign-in usernames!

EXCEPT G-MAIL. I took for granted that nobody would take davienne@gmail.com, but some other Davienne did!

Grr.

How do you pronounce 'Davienne'?
The real pronounciation as I originally intended it to be, is "the-veen". Then I realised that many other people tended to pronounce it as "day-vian". I tried to tell people it was "the-veen", but I failed miserably.

Wtf lah, I created this name so I should have the right to dictate how everybody should pronounce it, right?

Apparently not.

So leave a comment, and tell me how you actually pronounce "Davienne".
