    One of my friend's has a last name of Sekszincski. I think that is how you spell it, I am not even sure! I just call him Chad. He is from the same general home area that I am...there are lots of people who originated in Pennsylvania who ended up living in Virginia. I think that it is one of the ways that different and unsual names get spread across the United States. Anyway, many Polish names are hard to say, and even harder to spell!

    Where is Mari...I haven't seen her for a long time..Miss her posts!


    That said I've just returned from a vacation in Southern Spain ..so I'm just catching up with forum posts...so I may have missed her return while I've been away..but if not, does anyone know if Mari is OK?

    Welcome back , @Holly Saunders ! The last we heard from @Mari North is that she was going to be taking some college courses, and I think some kind of job changes, and she just didn't have time left over for the forum. Hopefully, at some point, she will have enough free time again to come back and visit us, at least; but in any case, she is fine, and just deeply involved with studies right now.

    Interesting name indeed. I likewise had a male cousin whose name was 'Jose Mari.' I guess the name can also be for men.

    Before I even read your comment, I called you 'marry'. I wasn't consciously thinking about it, but it would be like Mata Hari?
