I think it is time we revised the names of people posting here. I
think every Scot should have a Gaelic version of their names as do the
Irish. Thus:
Elidh Ramsaigh - Helen Ramsay (straight translation, no Gaelic
equivalent - I presume Ramsay was your maiden name,
It is. My husband's name caused too many problems with pronounciation so I
chose to go back to my own name.
gin ye kin mind that lang syne...) (OK,OK, it was just a joke...!)
It's what I did 5 minutes ago that I can't remember!

say "Elly Ramsay".
Thank you! My Mother pronounces my name Eln.
As I was born on St. Nicholas Day, my mother would call me "NIcky!"
whenever she felt humiliation was required.
