What country is that name from? All I found from a quick search is that it's the Hmong form of the common Chinese surname Wang. Are you Chinese, or rather Hmong, (or part Chinese/Hmong?) or am I completely wrong (again)?
We have been told that it is a surname sometimes used in Finland. (?)

We have no idea what our family lineage is, but Wife1 is Hmong. It is customary in their culture for the wife's name to be taken by the husband. We're not entirely sure that is true but it makes Wife1 happy and we don't have any family anyways. (Plus, she buys us lots of neat toys!)

People seem to get very hung up on names. It is our opinion that names do not define who a man is. His actions, or lack thereof, do.

We figure you can call us anything you want, as long as you don't call us late for supper.

I don't think you need to worry about Mr. Icann at the moment - he's too busy grumping at Yahoo and Jerry Yang to sell out to Microsoft in order to make his bet on said sale come out positive to pay much attention to domain-registration issues just now.

Apparently I'm a 'female urchin', or (and?) a 'harmful niece'.
But at least I'm 'main cheerful'
