Skaters Skating/Real names
« on: February 18, 2011, 09:11:35 PM »
Ok. I don't think we've ever talked about this. But what I'd like to do today is see how many skater we can think of,that we know BOTH a Skating AND real name for. For example...I can list these so far...

Sasha Cohen = Alexandra Cohen

Kristi Yumaguchi = Kristine Yumaguchi (yes,I just found it out. BTW. does anyone know if Kristi Ness is a Kristine too)?

Kimmie Meissner = Kimberly Meissner.

That's all I can think of at this time. Anybody else know any?

I do not think these are skating names, they just prefer to go by common nicknames.

It's Yamaguchi, not Yumaguchi.  :)  Hope that helps!
