I like the spelling Ria, too.

And don't worry about kids making fun of the name, they don't do as much of that type anymore, too hard... they hafta think, and the idea of adding 'Dia' up front (diarrhea), sorry, but kids today wouldn't even understand that until college level, when they're usually more mature and wouldn't do it.

Hey, my Mom's maiden name was Foote and in the 1920's she took some kidding, Smelly Foot, Foot-ee, etc... but remember, names were pretty standard then, mostly biblical, not like nowadays where you can have pretty much anything.

Thanks everyone...
