Shetland was just a wild guess, I didn't know where it is.

But the origin of New Zealand still confuses me... what on earth that island did have to do with Zealand when it was originally discovered?


It\s actually probably named after the Dutch Zeeland, not the Danish Zeeland. The two share the name by some quirk of history, most likely.

Piet is usually used in a kind or condescending way; "pieteke".
Jos is still often used though.

Abel Janszoon Tasman - Holland
1603 - 1659
The first European to discover New Zealand

There appear to be no records which explain precisely how New Zealand received its name. One theory is the possible link between New Zealand and Hollandia Nova, the original name given to Australia. The two Dutch provinces of Holland and Zeelandt were separated by sea, the same as Hollandia Nova (Australia) and Zelandia Nova (New Zealand).

Although Cheney is just a derivate of dick, I like it a lot more than the latter.

On a second thought, Cheney should better be a synonym for ass.

I knew a guy in college whose name was Peter Handler. Hand to God.

Where he grew up, no one apparently made the connection. But that changed in college.

He just rolled with it, baby. Ran for the Student Council. Posted his flyers above the urinals in the lecture halls: "Get a grip on your student government: Peter Handler for MSA."

our forums are too male centric.

Are there any female names that are euphamisms for vagina? I can't think of any.

Apparently there´s a variety of names in swedish. I found an extensive list at a swedish erotica page. Some of these are just boring, others are more commonly used. Some like "Skallige hämnaren" (the bald avenger) is just plain silly
