What is the English term for Purim?

I've heard it called "The Feast of Lots" ... a title that seems to have quickly fallen into oblivion. Well deserved, it seems to me. The best way to refer to the holiday, in whatever language is "Purim". Note to English speakers: The pronunciation should sound like "POO-reem", not "Pyerm" or "Perm". Purim (פורים) is the Hebrew word for "lots" as in a lottery where different candidates are chosen (not an expression of a large quantity). The name of the holiday comes from the way in which Haman chose which day the Jews were to be exterminated (by casting lots). It was by this method that he chose Adar 13 for the day of the massacre (which did was eventually resisted).
