Lena sounds fine to me
post
Pippa is slang for 'to fuck' in Swedish and 'masturbate' in Italian, not a bad entendre
Who the hell even speaks Slovenian just go for it
Hoist the colors high and rock it ๐ค it doesnt mean that anymore it means you.
At least in theory this statement is cool, Idk about practice sorry
The Dutch have a name that was pretty common that is literally dick in English.
"Dick" is a name in English.
Dickinson is also a surname in England.
I was 11 or 12 and was assigned Emily Dickinson for a school assignment about poets, I had to do all the research at home because the school computers blocked everything, even the Wikipedia article
I've been aware of the Scunthorpe problem ever since
Sounds gay lol
I know, it's the same name, but the post is about your name meaning something vulgar in a foreign language so i felt it had more relevance that way.
The English have a name that was pretty common that is literally Dick in English
You know about the thousands of people named "Dick"? Even in English speaking countries?
Just own that name you like. There have been cars by major companies named "Wanker" in foreign languages, and it didn't matter. As long you aren't living in an english speaking country and choose "Thundercunt McCumdribble" as a name, it's not an issue lol
I know of a Ukrainian Lena who's industrious AF.
Met a guy who changed his last name to Supern***er. Yes, of course he is white. So do whatever.
A colleague's name was (probably still is) Yoni. Just go for it!
isn't that just hebrew for John/Johnny?
Not sure. This was a woman. And in Hindi(?) it means vagina.
Yes it does, in modern parlance. From what I can tell though it;s older Sanskrit meaning was "the source" in relationship to life, or the divine creation, and could mean womb, etc.. but the name is still common today because it has long standing traditional spiritual meaning, and is less seen for the modern use of the word. It is also the base of Yonic, or vaginal like.
Something i just remembered from my Latin classes in school: a large amount of women's names in ancient rome were ailments and negatively viewed attributes transformed into a Name; that's why Lena is "lazy". Another one is "Claudia" which means "The one walking with a limp". So i would advise you to ignore these things - noone has thought about them outside of latin freaks for the last centuries.
Why did the Romans name their children after the sick?
I don't know - but i know my latin teacher was able to rattle down a list of around 20 very common names which all had something to do with ailments. Monty Python even used this fact (and the one that male names often had positive meaning) it in "Life of Brian" - the scene with "Biggus Dickus and Incontinentia" (in german he's "Schwanzus Longus") hits harder if you know these facts lol
There are a lot of people named Fanny around the world and it means butt in the south of the US and pussy in the UK. Own it.
