He still needs a last name. Even PRINCE has one.

Ever wonder why Basia only goes by her first name? Try pronouncing this:

Trzetrzelewska!

I bet only Paul can properly do so.

Prince is his last name-
First is "The Artist"
I question some parents mental acuity for giving a middle
name such as "Formerly known As"....
'68 4001MG, '70 4001 21Fret, '71 4001S MG, '71 4001FG, '72 4001AZ, '73 4001FG, '73 4001resto, '59 365FG, '96 381/12v69FG, '71 4001 21Fret FG

It's not MINE of course as you can see Jeffrey, and it's not even Russian - it's Czech if i'm not mistaken... 8-) means "Thursday" in fact, and it's the last name of one Czech guy who wrote stories for children...
Eh, okay... my Granny's maiden name was Svistylnik, how'd ya like it? 8-)

mmm... i actually thought it'd be [dzehdzeh'levska] - not actually a "dz" of course, a transcribed sound for "j", or "g" before e, i, y... 8-)

In Polish, Sheena, it's closer to a "tch" sound.
