Ryan Andrews: Hello. My name is Ryan Andrews. Since I live in Japan, I introduce myself with the Japanese pronunciation of my name on a daily basis, which is Ryan. And since my name is not one that Japanese children are familiar with, they often think that I'm saying that my name is Raion, which is the Japanese word for lion. And, fortunately, since I have a beard and often somewhat messy hair, the name lion fits pretty well and makes it easy for kids here to remember my name.
