HelpRe: Need name suggestions for a character's twin!
in reply to a message by the_enthusiast
Ooh interesting!
But here's the problem of the name Cassian and Cosmo if he's Indonesian:
🔲 They both are used very seldomly.
🔲 We usually don't read the C letter as /k/ we read it with the CH (like Chad) instead.
🔲 Cassian is similar to the Indonesian word kasihan, which means "pity".
From my experience, the safe C names options are Christian, Christo, or Christopher. Otherwise most Indonesians will mispronounce his name.
But! That's a different case if he's an Indonesian-American first-generation who was born in the USA.
Greetings from 15 hours ahead!

Ah, thank you so much for the feedback! I love when people provide it. It's interesting how your people go about pronouncing C since I am used to C being read as "K"!
I would say in his uni he's technically an Indonesian-American born in a variant of New Orleans, Louisiana, which is in the US.

Yes I really appreciate it loads, I'm learning new things everyday! I checked your profile again out of curiosity and you seem to be an avid name enthusiast (and a great one too!)
I'm also a 2006-ite, so we're around the same age :O. Would you like to be friends?
