Shoplifters : 


Walk backwards into shops so that if you get caught by store security cameras and the CCTV footage is rewound you can prove that you had already left the shop before the crime was commited.

You mean the Website owner that we all dearly love, right?

Her name is Guohua.

I have a fascination with names... I have two different ones, my NA one and my American one.

Guohua... does that have anything to do with the painting style in China?

Or is it a common name there?

Just curious because I'm that way...

Peony is a Simplified version of Traditional Mandarin Chinese.
Not a Common name is China. The shorter version Guo and Hua is very common.

As my husband says, "I'm Small Flower Of Love." 

I hope that helps and Thank You for being curious.

Thank you for the reply and that is a beautiful meaning.

The English language is so bland sometimes when it comes to names.

My Cherokee name roughly translates to "Bright Moon".

My wife's Delaware name means "Protector of the People".

Our English names are just other people's names recycled.... blah.

My husband has a Lakota Sioux Nation name given to him by his father a full blooded Lakota Sioux. The name is Lootah, means Earth or Ground.
His mother was full blooded German.
He doesn't use his Nation Name, he nor his sister was never registered with the Government as having Indian Blood and they were not born on the reservation.
My husband father left the reservation at the age of 13 to work in the mines and rail road.
At 20 years old my husbands father joined the Navy on Dec. 8th 1941 and obtained training in Electrical wiring / reading wiring schematics and advanced wiring work.
His highest formal education was on the reservation up to grade 5 and he's father pulled him out of school once he could read an write to work on their ranch.

Sorry I was rambling again.

I'm very proud of my English name.  Family history is very important to me and the surname means a lot when researching the meaning.  I'd post it here but I'm a bit shy of revealing my identity subsequently my Avatar name (pronounced Bawly) is a nickname that rhymes with it and a tag I've had all my life.  

In saying that we (my true love and children) and I did a lot of work in remote Aboriginal communities.  Without going into details Aboriginal names are family clan names handed down through generations.  There is a matrix and difficult for us to get our heads around it. My Aboriginal name is 'Tjungala' pronounced 'Chungala or just Jungala' if spoken quickly.  It is a senior name which in essence means 'rainmaker or a rain dancer/singer'.  I am a member of the family of Tjungala's.   It's a Warlpiri name.  It's a hand down name.

After being given the name and having access to ceremonies, my true love and children were given there respective names.  When my true love gave birth to our youngest daughter in Central Australia 'true love' and her were taken into the desert.  The daughter was given smoking ceremony by the elder women (women's business only).  Passed around over the smoking leaves while chanting and singing was undertaken.  While my youngest daughter was what they call a 'Nampa Jimpa' she was also given the name of 'Yumungali' after a princess of the Warlpiri tribe many years ago.  I'm lucky to still have a movie of it.

We have since moved many miles away but can return any time.  Some spooky things have happened to my daughter since then.  Every now and then she hears 'Yumungali' called out in the street of the main town near which we live.  Like someones watching over her.  I was given the spirit 'Jigali' who watches over us all.  The spirit has followed us everywhere.  

Anyway it's a very long story.

Kind regards,

Bally
