...One of our daughters asked me, many years ago, if our last names had two vowels. "Ah...actually, one vowel, and one semi-vowel." I think we'd get about the same pronunciation if it was spelled Brnz.


That would be similar to a city in CJC's ancestral home

Where the capital of Moravia is Brno.

But I think my favorite Czech surname is "Vlk" (which means "wolf", by the way).
