I'm Jona and this is my blog. I thought I'd start it out by giving the correct pronunciation of my name. It's Jona not Jonah. Don't ask me why it's spelled that way. I mean my dad's name is John so why not just tack on an "a" or an "na"? My mom still defends her decision ("It was less complicated that way") after all these years. My sisters Jill and Jennie both have double consonants in their names but my consonant stands alone (maybe they weren't just teasing when they said I was adopted, and maybe the whole name spelling thing is a subtle clue?). So anyway, that's how my name is pronounced. I'm off to find my birth certificate and give it a thorough look-see now.
It gets more exciting after this.
I hope.
