And of course this is very close to the Malagasy 'Maki' for ring-tailed lemur. I say just change it to Maki since you'll be spending a year with them nonstop anyway.
Tanzanians often think my name is Money. Then they tell me "nice name." I suppose it's better than being named "Problem" - which is a common name here.
I thought it was a funky name when I picked it, I even spelled it weird, what did I know at 17!
