Yes, chance also said the same with "Ulysses", maybe there is some name
that is similar to the names that we use on our planet (After all, there is
"Jake".). Hmmm, I always wonder, how did they get the name "Callista"? And
don't say that it was originaly come from "Callie", she hasn't been born
yet.
