Dear Purple

Since I have read all the pages in this post. And you seem to be the most likly to answer me, I'm posting this question? I'm not very good at these forum things. WHY?? Is there such a variation in spelling of the Thai names? Namely the King number 9. And the kings-sons-son?? The baby second to the throwns name is TEE. Not DA. I would not bring this up, but, I am married to a Thai and have a son 4 months old. Named after the child. I seached the internet and found his name as Tee. ( My sons name is Gollatee ) Several web pages list his name this way. Then I find almost the same pages with his name starting Da. The Kings name is the same way. My wife and every other Thai will fight you over this spelling thing..!! They say it is wrong. Has anybody got an answer for this? Is it lost in translation or something? ( Also just for you. It is rumored widly among the Thais that there was a video of the Princes' young movie star wife.) I was writing more to you. But I don't know who will see this. I don't want to start rumors. Even tho it is well heard in Thailand.
