    ok, the girl who could spin straw into gold had to have a name. What was it and how did she find out Rumpeltilskin's (pardon my guess at spelling)name.

    Trying to figure it out and remember w/o looking it up. Can YOU remember?

    Rapunzel, you're getting your Fairy tales mixed up, Rumplestiltskin was a different story.


    Sorry Jules, it's me that's getting mixed up, don't think "the millers daughter" had a name, she spied on Rumplestiltskin in the woods to learn his name.

    Rumpelstiltskin is one of my all time faves. As Kent mentioned, the Miller's daughter was not mentioned by name.  I did a little research and found something very interesting. Rumpelstiltskin in German means little rattle stilt


    Stilt: Post or pole for supporting a structure.


    Rumpelstilt or Rumpelstilz: Name of a type of goblin that makes noises by rattling posts and rapping on planks.

    It wasn't hard to find. LOL

    In the story she was known as The Millers Daughter then after she married the King, Mistress Queen, when i was very young this story was frightening to me, what a Woosie .  :)

    All of the brother's Grimm stories were rather gruesome in their original form......

    The enter-to-buy distribution model isn't the best but it's the best we have. And it represents a commitment to fairness that I respect most from Max and his crew. What other watch company keeps a record of folks who personally email them to inquire about a product and then turns around and makes them link a priority when the product in link question becomes available A real waitlist link that really works Amazing!
