Names in preschool

Also "Jun" is a male name, but in the US, everyone thinks about June Cleaver so it's not so great. In Thailand, the Juns I know are all female, but then all Thais use nicknames which are not gender specific, so I am not sure if that's their real name. I had a *Jun* in my class. This was a boy. He was Japanese and it was pronounced Jooon Our former lab tech was Jun, pronounced June. She is Chinese. Mary |
