I was going to write you a limerick but I realized that how I pronounce your name in my mind might not be the way it's pronounced. This is usually an important component of a limerick. Unless I go with, "There once was a fella from Amsterdam." That would work quite nicely too. hmmm

Much more personal with a name though. I mean...you're not just another schmuck from Amsterdam!

But what does it mean? Does it mean anything Ferre?

Ferre

Nah, doesn't mean anything, and it's pronounced more like Férre (the accent is on the first é while the last e is more of an "eh" (but without pronouncing the "h")

I spent rather a long time trying to get my tongue around your name, do you mind if I just call you Francis :sqwink:

Is this right:

"Fai - throat clearing noise - ur"

We stateside people have such trouble with those glottals...
