I'd like to see if anyone can find my real name (the last is a rough translation)

My name is not translatable. It's short and easy, but not very common, and always stays like it is.

i know a rachyl. volleyballer.

there are a few on here who know my name already but i'm not about to disclose it here.

but it's a variant of a rather common one. used by royals

My given name is mostly the same throughout western Europe. Interestingly, I encountered a dish at an authentic Thai restaurant "Lab Pet." Oh no!!

Let me guess - Alex? Marcus? Thomas?

Mine? Hah hah, no (I'm female, see profile). In the interest of privacy, I don't reveal it. No clue what the Thai dish 'Lab Pet' is though!

English, Michael
French, Michel
Italian, Michele
Spanish/Portuguese, Miguel
Finnish, Mikko or Mikail.

I have two names …

First one is very area-specific. Basically, not really translate-able.

The other one is a local version of an 'internationally popular' name. Which is an extremely common one so it may be fun to look at the length of the 'translations' list...

One of these is translations is … well, almost correct. Almost, because my real name (which is a much more common rendering of this name than the one actually listed) is, well, simply not listed at all!

So I would take this http://www.behindthename.com/names/translate with a pinch of salt.

But anyway, I should start choosing nicknames from this list. Looks like it's one of the longest ...

English speaking people can't pronounce my name properly, so they settle for "lassie" quite frankly i find it rather endearing.

My username is uncommon, so I imagine it'd be written the same in all languages that use the Latin alphabet (how they'd all pronounce it is anyone's guess). It's kinda interesting seeing it written in other scripts, though.

Latin alphabet: Murihiku
Japanese: ムリヒク
Korean: 무리히쿠
Chinese (simplified): 穆里希库
