Love your priest and llama.

In the casual Spanish of the southwest "como se llamo or llama was used to ask someone their name depending on whether they were were male (o) of female (a). Those who speak more formal Spanish, use this phrase to ask the name of a thing.

Thanks Norma, and thanks for the inspiration. Your llama is so cute. While I don't speak Spanish, I've picked up a phrase here and there, so knew your puzzle was asking for a name. I really liked your play on words.

Thanks, Heather. I figured you knew but wasn't sure about others.

Ogden Nash wrote a very short poem about this, and I was reminded of it almost as soon as I saw the title. Fun puzzle!

I am a practicing Buddhist myself. Not too long ago, I posted on Facebook about how the Refuge name I'd been giving by my lama was Lhamo, and that it would be amusing if I ever did the full 3 year retreat because I would be Lama Lhamo. Facebook "helpfully" offered to translate all of these things using Bing. Hilarity ensued.

Me: Ya know... The refuge name Lama Surya gave me was Urgyen Lhamo. If I ever became a Lama, I would be Lama Lhamo. That would be... confusing....
Friend: lama llama?
Me: LOLOLOLOL: do lama called?(Translated by Bing)
Friend: la llama llama al lama?
Me: the flame flame the Lama?(Translated by Bing)
Friend: I ask in Spanish, "The llama is calling the Lama?"
Bing translation reads, "the flame flame the Lama"

And a three-L lllama is one heck of a big fire! Okay, it's funnier spoken.

I would bet a silk pajama you've never seen a 3-L llama.
