Sunskriti is a very pretty name, Darrell. :D

Thank you for sharing your name with us, Sunskriti, and it is a charming first name. Thank your Dad too, for letting you! Never think your name will make people laugh, many of my peers (when I was at school) laughed at my second Christian name, and I know how that feels! I even contemplated changing it, but never would, as my Mother chose it.

Fancy Anita being derived from the Hebrew for Hannah. That explains something!

I get really annoyed with this 6-year-old girl because she calls me Abigel or Abigirl. No I've got so annoyed that I said to call me Abi.
Abi.

Still trialling other writers, but will eventually go back to reading a bit of Blyton! Just too many books...

Occasionally will pop in! xx

Why not change your name to Romana? :wink:

Incidentally, whenever I see your username, I always think it says Up Romania!

All these names! Maybe you should change your username to Seven-Up! All those numbers and 'romana' get a bit confusing! :D

Hi!
Yesterday I found in a charity shop High Adventure With Enid Blyton.
Never even heard of this one before. I was very pleased when I got it for 70p! :D :D :D

But people sometimes call me 7upromana01 so if they saw those posts they would become confused. If it wasn't for that I would change my username.

Thanks everyone! Yes thank my dad too. But when I told him Fionas point, he agreed to let me tell you guys!!

Fionas Point:

Everyone who was browsing the blog site would see your real name so why not tell us?

Yes it's true!
You can call me Sunskriti!

Sunskriti is a very lovely name - my name Francis is my second name (my first
name is Gerry). Francis is a catholic saints name - he was someone who loved
animals and birds so it seems very appropriate for an Enid Blyton site (My heroes
were the boys from the Adventure series).

I've never heard of that book. I couldn't even find it inside the cave! :?

I did that search too Julie. I wonder if it is a modern compilation of short stories - there do seem to be quite a number around.

Thx once again to those who like my name!( I was afraid people would laugh because it was a bit unusual from British point of view.)

But nothing such!!
