I just went to get some photos developed and the technician/cashier guy's name was Maakaaeel
I do not understand the extra vowels!
I assume it's pronounced like Mikael (mih-kayl)

Maybe its some sort of cultural thing.
Otherwise that is kind of strange.

Well I know there are more vowels in Estonian names, I knew brothers named Priit, Taavo, and Maarcus. But still that wasn't THIS many vowels.

I concur.

I hope it was Hawaiian and not a severe misspelling.

It's possible, but this guy did not look Hawaiian.
He looked European.

On that note, what with Aaron?!?!

well, it's the anglicized version of Aharon...so I guess they just took out the H and smushed the As together?
