Important! Possibly changing account!
15 years ago
Hi everyone. I just wanted to inform you all that I'm possibly going to make a new account to both deviantArt and Furaffinity. The reason for this is that I've found out that in english my artist-name, Kilju, is pronounced "kill-jew". I had no idea at all about this and I got seriously shocked when I found this out. I DON'T admire nazis and I DON'T have anything against jews. GOT IT?! Kilju is really a finnish word and means "booze" (I don't drink though) and it's pronounced here here more like "kill-you", but the CORRECT way to pronounce it is "kil-you". here more like "kill-you", but the CORRECT way to pronounce it is "kil-you".
So I now explained that I'm not a nazi and kilju means something else. By the way kilju can also be pronounced "kill-you" and that's the way how we pronounce it here in Finland (but here it's more like "kil-you"). I've always knew that and thought it to be funny. But even though I explained myself now, I think I'd still better change my artist-name. Too bad the account name can't be changed here in FA or in DA, so I think that I'd better to create new account at least to here FA to avoid more misunderstandings. I will inform you later what my new artist-name will be and if I'm going to create a new account.
And I repeat myself: KILJU IS PRONOUNCED "KIL-YOU" or in any other way, but NOT "KILL-JEW"! I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING AGAINST JEWS AND I DON'T MEAN ANY HARM TO ANYONE!

I don't think it is a problem I don't see anyone actually taking any offense to that it's just a coincidence.

yes it is just a coincidence and it's true no one's taken any offense yet, but I was afraid if someone will.

I seriously doubt it will, and should someone really take offense to it I'm sure you explanation can set it right. You forget that being foreign to the US is usually seen as a pretty good excuse for things like this. Should you have been american than I would be worried.

yes you've got a point there
