There was an Asian lady doing reports on the news with a name something
like Nanna Neenu at one time but I never saw it written down to see just
how it was spelled.
I'm still disappointed that Picaboo Street has retired,not because I
have any interest in skiing it was just that her name always made me
smile.American football must still hold the record for the strangest
names and spellings of "normal" names.

Hah! I can top that. LA's local public radio station has a reporter named
Doualy Xaykaothao[1]. Stick that in your pipe and spell it.

I understand Ms. Street made a significant donation to her local hospital
in support. It's now known as the Picaboo Intensive Care Unit. Such
philanthropy is unusual among the elite athlete.
