Apparently Karva means 'a hair' in Finnish....------------------

From <A HREF="http://haldjas.folklore.ee/folklore/vol3/red.htm" TARGET=_blank>http://haldjas.folklore.ee/folklore/vol ... .The Proto-Finnic language borrowed the Baltic word karva, which also developed a dual meaning -karva1 - 'hair'
karva2 - 'the colour of the hair'.In order to further my efforts to be more like Karva, I'm changing my name to Blonde. ------------------

That's okay. The Mrs. Blonde position is still up for grabs.

Well, technically, that should be Mr. Blond and M/r/s Blonde.Ant that's French. I could be Mr. Rou (for redheads).------------------
