Anyone... Anyone... Anyone... Bueller... Bueller....

Zeeka?

Zyca?

Zicka?

I've been running around my studio with the bodies I just got from them, saying "ZEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKAAAAAA!!!!" Just wanted to know if I'm pronouncing correctly in my enthusiasm.

Thanks,

Hey Sandy,

Glad to hear you're happy with the bodies. :smile:

The "I" in ZICA is long so it's actually pronounced like Z + eye + CA.

I think we've all been pronouncing it wrong. From now on it's Zica! (I know it looks the same, but I pronounced it correctly in my head this time.) I like the correct pronunciation better. Sounds more violent. Like it needs an exclamation point after it! Or screamed with a karate chop...

A little curious about that myself, Craig... Care to tell us how you came up with such an interesting name?

ZICA is an affectionate name that my wife uses for our two sons, kind of like when you call your significant other, "honey" or "sweetheart". The word is Russian for small rabbit.

That's so cute!

And it's a lot better than the nickname one of my brother's friends stuck on me when I was a kid.

He used to call me "Froggy".

It's an "I" not an "E" sound? Jeez, I'm going to have to totally rewire my brain to correct that lol...

I love the origin of it, though, too cute...
