HelpRe: Brook
in reply to a message by 2angelgoats
Where I live, it sounds like the Afrikaans word 'broek', which unfortunately means both 'trousers' and 'knickers'. The first time I saw a reference to Brooke Shields, I very nearly flipped.
Of course, that doesn't apply to most of the world. When it comes to, let's say, modern names, I think it's often wise to use a total classic with them, just in case the tide of history changes and leaves them stranded, as if their owners had a date of birth tattooed on their chin. Or a slightly off-centre classic!

Christabel Brook/e
