What's in a Name?



Michele Bachmann is being touted as the ditz-in-politics across the left-wing, liberal media. But she's far from it.

Starting with her name. I wondered at the odd spelling, but it is more accurate than it seems.

Michele is the actual French spelling for Michelle, although the first e has an accent. It is written Michèle in French.

The Swiss/German Bachmann spelling appears to be a variation for the Anglicized version which is what we are used to in America. But, the ending with two n's is not uncommon.
