I was at the store tonight. My cashier was probably in his late teeens or early 20s. His name?

Kamel.

I can only assume it's pronounced kuh MELL, and not CAM uhl.

well, even if it is Kuh Mell, I'm sure he's been called Camel more than he'd care to admit.

Ha!. I never even realised the whole Camel thing until after you pointed it out. I automatically pronounced it Ka-meal.

I first read it as Camel, lol, though I'm sure it's Kuh-mell.

It looks Arabic to me.

I've heard of Kamil as a name before.

And yeah, even though I know it's not pronounced the same as camel, it's one of those names that makes me smile to myself. :)
