Journaling:
Gina is the short form of my real name. I use it in every scrapbooking forum. Often four letters are too short so I have added a * at the beginning and the end and so in most of the forums my username is *gina*. I decided to need the short form because I don’t like my real name. I only use it for very official things. When I was born my mom selected another name but my dad carried his point. So I got this old-fashioned name and only this one. Therefore I have no chance to use a second name. For this reason my daughter got 2 names, also my granddaughters.
My real name is Latin and means „queen“. It is also the capital city of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. And you will find it on English coins.
Guessed you what my real name is? I think you will not have any problems to find the right one.

      That's cute, to make a guess! I have guessed it, but I won't call you that since you don't like it! I very much like your page--that's a great kit, and I love how elegant you made it look--just like you! =)

      I love your layout and your journaling although I don't have a clue as to what your real name is so I'm off to consult "Mr Google."

      Okay, I got it. Thanks for the clue. What in the world did we ever do before Google came along?

      Good story! When I was younger your real name was quite popular here but not so much anymore. I think it's a good name, but can relate to what you are saying. I only have one name (it is customary that you get your godmother's name as a second, but mine hated hers and insisted I'm not getting it) and my name isn't very pretty, I think.
      I like Gina, it sounds nice and lovely.
      Oh, And I wanted to thank you for all the nice comments you left on my pages lately. I appreciate them all, you are my comment heroine! :)

      I like your real name AND I like Gina :-) I am with you in having no middle name (and a first name I don't particularly like). My father has no middle name and didn't see why my sister and I should, so we both have very plain first names and that's it. And, yes, my daughters both have two middle names!! Loved seeing your page, for the story and also because it is so beautifully done :-)
