Did you know Michael Ignatieff’s\* wife’s name is Zsuzsanna Zsohar?

I think zshe is part of the zstrategic consonant importazion program. If he doesn’t win, maybe they’ll go back to America and zsettle in Ka’a’ava. Or else he’ll become a zsenator.

\*Michael Ignatieff is the head of the Liberal party in Canada. He spent a lot of time in the US and is taking some heat for it in the runup to the next election.

Actually, that’s a cool name. I’m still not voting for Ignatieff though. 🙂 (He became my MP in Etobicoke South, even though I voted for someone else. Sigh.)

That’s the Hungarian version of Susanna. I have an aunt (from Hungary) with that name.

Yep. You may recognize a variant of the name in Zsa Zsa Gabor.

Zsuzsanna -\> Zsuzsa -\> Zsazsa/Zsuzsu

(Basically, something like “Susanna -\> Susan -\> Susie”)
