Thanks for the reply to Nimues last name. I should have been clearer. I meant the name she is using in her PICA.

Thanks,
Chuck

There was something about that when the book came out. I think it was Welsh for "little sister" or something like that.

First name if you stretch a bit, MAYBE.
Last name? Only if you have some very strange local pronounciation going.

Just for one question, where do you hide the "s" in Johnston? It´s not silent.
And the vowel values are nowhere close.
