[Opinions] Re: Rio
It’s sounds instantly male, to me. I have a lot of Hispanic family and friends, so I automatically associate the o ending with male. Tio, amigo, etc.I suppose i would automatically assume the English usage or Rio to be from the Spanish/mexican influence.And I honestly do not think I’ve ever met anyone named Rio. It’s not hideous or anything at all, I just don’t think I’ve met anyone with the name.
As a kid, we went to a Mexican restaurant called pio-pio’s, and it was said just like Rio….i think the owner was called Pio…. Very old memory so I could be getting some details wrong
