Just my parents being creative. It's like the constellation Orion, and my great-grandfather named Shya or something, and... I dunno, hehe.

If you have a heavy accent, it sounds like 'Ocean'... or "Oh! Sean!!"  :P ;D

Thanks for the info, Oshyan.  I have been saying it with the emphasis on the second syllable.  Now I know.  Cool.
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?

Hehe. That is exactly how I read it from the first.
I've tried to figure out on my own how it's really pronounced, but I had to stick with ocean ;)
Anyway. I think it's a cool name.

I thought the ocean was blue, not Greene. Trick of the light maybe.  :D
Until now, I thought you were O-shy-an too.

JimAward

JimAward is a re-ordering of the characters of my surname Mijwaard (which is Dutch). 
I don't know if there is a Jim Award prize thing somewhere, but this name sounds funny to me.
