[Opinions] Re: Rio
in reply to a message by mirfak
I feel like I remember a classmate of mine using it for her little boy about ten years back, but I may be wrong.
I do know I met a dog named Rio just the other day. A little beagle mix puppy, cute as he can be.
I don't really dislike the name, and I don't care which origin a given person uses, though I have no interest in the whole Japanese anime/manga/j-pop stuff and I guess I'd assume a non-Japanese person using the Japanese name Rio was one of those fangirls or fanboys.
I also do associate it with the girl in the Duran Duran song. So I slightly think of it as more feminine than masculine.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
