Okay, as you know, I'm not a painter, however...

I wasn't even given a middle name at all! I got cheated.

Then I got cheated again because, believe it or not, my last name Daniel was from my dear Egyptian husband who passed away. You'd think I would have gotten something more exotic. You would never think "Daniel" to be Egyptian. As I'm told, his family was from the Christian tradition and this was the reason...it came from the Bible.

Some people want to pronounce it Danielle, which I actually don't mind. But, I feel it would be too contrived to start telling people to pronounce it that way.

There's times I've thought of going back to my maiden name of Secunda, which came from Hungarian Szekunda! Do you think I might increase my chances of fame? Or does this just work for artists?
