Thank you both!! It's a long time since my Latin lessons and my Chemistry A level...and I'd forgotten both. It really is the sound that grates on my ears...I'd say like chalk on a blackboard, only that never bothered me! LOL

In RL, I rarely introduce myself by including my surname...for some reason, part of me believes my first name is sufficient!! I suspect it comes from many years of being the only woman in a work-related gathering, and since I have a traditionally female name, it was obvious which name belonged to me!
