Biblical names have always been pretty popular within certain circles. I ran into a Naphthali the other day, cut from the same cloth if I"m not mistaken.

I mean, they're pretty common among Israeli Jews, even non-religious ones. Although there it's more common to have ones that have literal natural meanings. Lots of Erez (Cedar), Alon (Oak), Dvorah (Bee), Shunit (Reef), Almog (Coral), Guy (Valley), etc.

Dorca is Tabitha in Spanish, iirc. In an English speaking context, Osnat or Dikla are quite bad imo.

E: In before AA says it's spelled Asenath or something in English.

Typical Jewish Israeli names. The former is Anglicized as Asenath, which gives it a strange air in English that is absent in Hebrew, probably making The Thing on the Doorstep very different, although I haven't read it in translation.

Honestly names are only weird if you're not used to hearing them.

I live in Tennessee, which is literally nonsense that no one is even sure where it originates from- the best people can guess is that it's a Cherokee modification of some Yuchi word, and in it is somewhere called Tullahoma which I can't even begin to think sounds weird because I've just known it all my life, but when I think about it in context to other names or places it comes off as weird.

It sounds more like a flower than anything.

Give people enough time and Zune Tusux will be just as accepted as any other name out there.

I'm terrible and I suck so I'm not gonna google up the details but Arkansas is a word of the Native Tribe that lived in this area, and Kansas comes from a different language root.


Looks similar, very much different.






As an aside, if the Native tribes that lived in the South of Arkansas, into the Mississippi and such, the "Mound Builders", had built with stone, there would be a poo poo ton of ruins similar to the Mayan structures.
They built with wood, so by the time European's came around, the earth had reclaimed it all.

I read that at first as bringing it into the office for people to shoot and honestly did not think it was entirely unreasonable for Wyoming.
