Daphne Kalmar: Hi. My name is Daphne Kalmar. I happen to be the only person named Daphne Kalmar in the United States, which is lucky when I set up my website at daphnekalmar.com since no one had taken it already. Daphne is just two syllables, although some people insist on pronouncing it with three, Daf-fen-nee. Please don't. And sometimes people spell it with two Fs by mistake rather than P-H. They stick a Y on the end, too. There's no Y. It's a Greek name from Greek mythology, and I'm not Greek. My dad just liked the sound of it. I do too.
