Re: Fanny
in reply to a message by Lily8
I would never use it. And I don't like the sound of it. It's just screams genitals to me.
Now, if you were pretty intense on using it I'd probably prefer to see the spelling Fannie, because the slang word is fanny (in Aus at least).
I think as a child a Fanny might get a few jibes thrown her way, but I don't think it would be a life-long affliction. After all, once you know someone with the name, it ceases to be a word, and becomes a Peson's name.
I still wouldn't use it though!
