[Opinions] Names from bus and German class
I ride the public bus to and from school and on the ride coming home from school today there was a group of kids on some sort of field trip. I only heard 3 of the kids names they were trying to read a sign that said "Cineplex Odeon Cinemas" while we were waiting for the bus which was pretty amusing. There names:
Cecilia
Odin
DeniseOther passengers:
Eliyahu
Warren
Rosa "Rosie"
And the driver:
Heidi Plus names from my German class since this is short (German name after real name):
Matthew "Matt" (Volker)
Matthew "Matt" (Sven)
Erik (Sebastian)
Alison (Gudrun)
