It's 'Ferroa' (pronounced fair-ro) like the ancient Egyptian royals? <br /><br />One of the reasons i have been adamant on keeping my maiden (family) name is because everyone keeps mis-pronouncing his!! there's meant to be a diphthong in there somewhere. most folks (including myself) don't know how to these fancy names. <br /><br />so now, i get called Mrs. "Fur-row-wa". the worse so far is Mrs. "Furry"!!!!!
