Sheiyah is such a gorgeous name for a girl, but it means barn. LOL! Okay, yes, I would use it to name a daughter.

Amish TV...how Ironic.I speak Hochdeutsch (Standard German) and American english (want to be more british), I also want to learn Dutch and maybe Deitsch/Pennsylvania Dutch and Afrikaans (a dialect of Dutch, counted as as a seperate language but it is extremely similar and mutually intelligble with Dutch!

Superelve you are wrong...there is no dutch in Pennsylvania Dutch,it´s a mix of Southwestern/western Palatinate,Swiss-German (schweitzerdeutsch) and Alsacian and English.They have nothing to do with the Netherlands.some of them might have crossed the Atlatic strating from there,but thats all!
