hey everybody, im trying to find out 2 words in thai writing. one is my last name - ivany , i tried typing it in translators but it would not translate to thai writing, it just stayed as "ivany"

another word im looking for in thai is "pride" , i typed it in and got many different spellins such as:

• ความภาคภูมิใจ
• ความภูมิใจ
• ความหยิ่ง
• ความภาคภูมิ
• ความยโส
• ทิฐิมานะ

can anybody tell me which one is the correct one for the word pride, and if ivany can be written in thai? thanks!

anybody?

Assuming that Ivany is pronounced "eye-van-nee", a possible spelling in Thai is this:

ไอแว็นนี

Regarding "pride", ภูมิใจ / poom-jai / "proud" is probably the best word to use. "Pride" is literally ความภูมิใจ, but it seems like a funny word to get as a tattoo. It should be noted that the concept of "pride" doesn't have quite the same connotations in Thai culture as it does in English--it's usually ok to be "proud" of your group, but "pride" in oneself is often associated with conceit, snobbishness, and arrogance.
