You think of World Cup teams in terms of their Downer supporters... i.e., England is Sauce, Germany is Esty, Brazil is Morm, etc.

When you set up elaborate e-mail contingency plans with other members to keep you informed about Downs happenings on the chance that you won't be able to access the forum for a while.

At the risk of going off topic, I would venture Kel-oo-i-en. Though a more French Kel-wee-en could be on the table.

I always had it as a 'c' so it's soft, and goes Cell-wee-en.

And that has me joining the addicted ranks

French would be as Kath says ..... soft initial C like Celine.....

But if it is Elvish it has to be the hard .... but I never remember that when I think names.......

I've always said it "Kel-oo-ee-en".
