HelpRe: Fanny and Dick (more)
in reply to a message by Perrine
American here.
I think Fanny is usable here in the US, especially as a nickname for Frances, Francesca, etc.. It doesn’t have a vulgar meaning here. In fact I only know about the vulgar meaning because my boyfriend is Scottish.
Dick really isn’t usable here anymore. People think of a penis when they hear that word and that’s pretty much all it is to people. It’s also a slang term for a rude person. Just no.
