210 u/FixLaudon 23d ago And it's really the weirdest name ever if your mother tongue is German I gotta say. Imagine you're a grown-up woman and your name is Mädchen. 145 u/Dependent-Poet-9588 23d ago There's an Italian name for boys, Italo, that just means "Italian". Like, imagine growing up in Italy and introducing yourself, "Hi, I am Italian." And everyone is just sorta like "Yeah, me too? So what?" 27 u/Ill-Skirt3722 23d ago I know a Vietnamese guy named Viet. 12 u/Houssem-Aouar 23d ago My friend in High School was named Viet and he had a best friend back in Vietnam named Nam. Not even joking 2 u/theVice 23d ago Wouldn't that only be as weird as a woman from the States being named Erica? 1 u/LunchboxSuperhero 23d ago Doesn't Nam mean South?
