Pick my Baby's name.

[slobake]

I can't believe nobody mentioned this, you should call him-her Ziltoid.

Or Slobake, Slobake would be cool too.

YEAH! Orale

 

[slobake]

Get back on your meds you fool.

Easy there. Ziltiod likes to have fun but he is nobody's fool.

 

[slobake]

slobake did you mean to quote me or matante?

Just judging from what I've learned about languages in my spare time, Francesco being originally Italian just sounded a little bit fishy to me...what I dug up on the interwebz was about the same thing your sources are saying

Nope didn't mean to quote either of you. If a name has a Latin root does it neccesarily have to Italian as well?

 

[macaroni tony]

My understanding of the way the name Francisco entered Spanish is that they simply needed a way of saying Saint Francis, who was an Italian actually named Francesco. I studied Italian and my understanding was that at the time of Saint Francis' life and in his particular Italian dialect, Francesco meant Frenchman. The modern Italian word is Francese.

Have you studied any other languages?

I wonder if there is a language thread

That's not what I said

I studied French but will not claim any in-depth knowledge on that one. I'm also studying Latin vicariously through my niece.

Someone once told me that "words are energy" and it's true.
