Glad you are online.

BTW: My name is Deon, not Dean :)

I know I've got a rare name, when ever I verbally tell somebody my name, and they write it down, 95% right down dion.

I then ask them how to spell "neon" (as in the light).
And finally, I ask them how to spell "lion" (as in the african animal).

Then I ask why did they choose di over de... most dont know :)

That said, I've only ever met 3 other deon's in person. I worked with one - he was a dion - that was 40 years ago. Then in the last 5 years I met the other two within a few months of each other - one became a neighbour, the other was an uber driver taking me to the airport. They were deons with an "E" :)
