Just a note:

We're voting at our school for the name of our mascot, the husky, just so our husky will have a name. I was thinking about possible candidates and came up with these:

Alaska
Tundra
Klondike

...and I thought McKinley would be good, but, since it's been changed to Denali out of regard for native Americans there, I thought to also propose Denali. Hence the question here: how to pronounce it. I really like the sound of McKinley better, but guess it wouldn't be good to work against the change.

Balto would have been good, too, but it's definitely male and the PTA thought it might be good to have a name that would work for both girls and boys.
