Tony = toni = to tune or to play a note. Thank you Esperanto.

Vestitor:The name is Melinda. One hopes she'd be able to see the difference, though in spoken Esperanto it probably does sound similar.Not everyone spells it with an E.
For example, Malinda Lo

FoxtrotUniform:I still get a smile when someone asks how I fartas.It has always sounded funny to me too.
Kiel vi fartas? <--- How are you farting?
Mi fartas bone. <--- I am farting well.
I think they call this a false friend.
