Re: Did Chi Chi Scholl Change Her Name???
It may have been a nickname when she was young, and it stuck with her???

Re: Did Chi Chi Scholl Change Her Name???
Chiara is obviously her given name. I don't see why she put "Chi Chi" on the WTA site all these years...pretty ridiculous.

Re: Did Chi Chi Scholl Change Her Name???
But Chi Chi was sooooo cute. I loved to see her in qualifications and cheered for her just because of Chi Chi factor.

Re: Did Chi Chi Scholl Change Her Name???
Don´t know. Can you take a grown up woman seriously, who calls herself Chi Chi? or (Chichi) 
If I hear the name Chichi I think about a little dog (that kind of dogs, some women carry in their bags) or a travesty-star.
So I think, it was a good idea, that she calls herself Chiara from now on.

Re: Did Chi Chi Scholl Change Her Name???
I think Chiara is a pretty name. I can't say I care too much for "Chi Chi" - too cutesy sounding for me (and I can't STAND most cutesy names) (it's Christmas, where is my goodwill, I know...  ).

Re: Did Chi Chi Scholl Change Her Name???
How is the name pronounced by the way? She she, or tshi tshi (like the panda)? Is her name alliterative?

I thought that she was Chinese origin. Chi Chi was the worst name I heard before.

Chi chi ahhh chi chi
Bad girls
Talking about the sad girls
Sad girls
Talking about bad girls, yeah
See them out on the street at night, walkin'
Picking up on all kinds of strangers
If the price is right
You can't score if you're pocket's tight
But you want a good time
Chi chi ahh chi chi

Re: Did Chi Chi Scholl Change Her Name???
I always thought she pronounced it like Chi Chi Rodriguez, the ancient golfer. But with this new information, I wonder, did she pronounce it like this: Ki Ki? Chiara is in no way pronounced "sh" or like the "ch" in cheese. I am very curious now. I do like the name Chiara, better than Chi Chi. The name reminds me of the great Marcello Mastroianni's and Catherine Deneuve's daughter Chiara.
