Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I guess it is (may be) Sundog, taken from my absolutely favorite book store which is app. 1,000 miles from where I live.   I recognized that pic as soon as I saw it & though "Perfect choice - Sundog!" (I live not far from Seaside...) |

I need help naming my Kindle too! I don't want to just settle on something - it has to be perfect. Thinking something with a K since Kindle starts with K and so does my first name... but I want something unique and pretty. Any ideas?

Kaki I had a friend named Kaki way back when I was about 6 years old. I haven't thought of her in years and her name just popped into my head when I read your post! |

Great name!! (but of course I'm biased, I love my Aunt Kay).
Interesting that it says it's pronounced KIGH-ko. We always pronounced it KAY-ko. Maybe she anglicized it.... I never knew it meant "my adored one."

Meemo, so where are you? I envy you -- 'cept maybe in hurricane season. I've got some of Seaside and the beach here. My condo is full of shells, sand, bottles of gulf water, a pelican feather, etc., etc. It does look kinda like a Florida beach cottage -- everything but the view! But then Sausalito is for sale!  |

I'm in Niceville - about 30 minutes away. I can live with hurricane season - it's cold weather I can't handle! |
