Seventeen years ago I married an Italian by the name of Frank Ciallelo. The good thing is that I can use my name without worrying that someone else will have it. The bad thing is that no one can pronounce it. The correct pronounciation is Chill-lello. The Ci sounds like Ch in English, Like the word "ciao", as in "ciao baby".

Pronounced "chow" in English. I still get tongue tied when someone asks me what my name is, Chill-lello is hard for me to say correctly. And sometimes people say Linder instead of Linda.

But, before I was a Ciallelo, I was a Vredenburgh for 18 years, before I was a Vredenburgh, I was a Rockwell for 18 years. Life is strange.
