Johanna Ries: Hello, my name is Johanna Ries. Meinen namen ist Johanna Ries. And my parents named me after the French heroine, Joan of Arc. This name is translated with Johanna in German. Even Germans get my last name wrong, although it consists of four letters only. So I usually say, "Ries is spelled like the German word for giant, but without the last letter."
