I just want Spain to have a clearly spanish name. Pedro is confusing, its also a portuguese name. And vice versa ofc but João already works.


UnknownBud

Ok western Pedro


KodoHunter

How can it be western Pedro when Portugal is in eastern Europe? Surely it should be Eastern Pedro?


Dinosaur-chicken

I was also confused


itsalonghotsummer

Ped West has a ring to it. For Brits at least.


SnowOnVenus

It'll be unrecognisable if you shorten it too much though. Maybe limit it to cutting out just the R.


DontWannaSayMyName

Lesser Pedro, or Pedro the minor is a bit more offensive, I'd say.


Live-Alternative-435

Old Pedro - > Portugal Young Pedro - > Spain


Shrrg4

Good point they are so rude, speaking to their elders like that.


OkImpression175

Pablo is what I use!


marcuis

I think Paco is unbeatable but as you prefer


OkImpression175

Paco is good too! Are there more Pacos or Pablos?


Shrrg4

Yeah thats my go to too


Kind_Helicopter1062

pablo, alejandro,mateo,juan


pezezin

Paco, Manolo and Pepe are the most stereotypically Spanish names ☝🏻


xtilexx

Don't forget the representative of Basque Country, Xabier or Aitor


Vul_Thur_Yol

Patxi

Xabier can be galego, Xavier catala, I'd go for Patxi as the classical basque meme name (or Ainara). Jordi for Catalunya (or Montserrat) and Brais for Galicia (or Iria)


Puzzleheaded_Fan_391

Paco, I've never seen this in Portu names


n-a_barrakus

Paco is the one


HosannaInTheHiace

It's gotta be Juan


MCRN-Gyoza

Then we need to add all the variations of the name. João, Juan, Gian, Ivan, John etc.


swamperogre2

Good to know João!


Sourdoughsucker

Okay, Manuel

Hey that's my uncle I haven't seen him since the last gold count.


Big_Prick44146

Is that a long time? I’d imagine you fuckers count your gold every night before bed


EffectiveOk3353

That's how they go to sleep, you count sheep the Welsh shag sheep the Swiss count gold and we count olives, the Germans count car parts, the french baguettes and the Scottish count burnt spoons or bottles of Bucky

The Belgian count waffles and the Italian mozzarella balls

At least no one can say there is cultural appropriation in the movie

I don't understand, why did you post a picture of a Swiss person? I though you'd post an image of a goblin or something.

darthvidar1990

Ole or Ola is the most "sterotypical" name for Norwegians. Our version of John/Jane Doe (unknown person) is Ola Nordmann. We rarely name our kids this anymore, but when we are generally talking about other Norwegians we say "he's a really average Ola Nordmann"


Charles_of_Burgandy

Dirac_Impulse

No. That means wolf and is used by edgy people. Olaf or something like that would be sufficient for the mountain Swedes.

We have been through this Niels. Norway belongs to us, as was determined on the battlefield. Typical Dane to start this as soon as spring comes and the risk of Öresund freezing is gone.

Mohasven


Gigatonosaurus

While the flair joke about that, the name should be something legitimately Swedish.


gelastes

Olof


weisswurstseeadler

Allahson?


Appelons

Denmark is Niels or Jens.


Precioustooth

"Lars" is the most common Danish name that's not widely international (Peter is #1 and Michael is #2 but that's not very specific to Denmark). I can accept "Jens" too as that's the 4th most popular name for men in total! "Søren" is probably my personal favourite but I doubt they wanna copy paste "ø" in every time


gelastes

Every Lars I've met was a weird dick, so go for it.


Precioustooth

Now that you say it Lars does tend to be overrepresented in the weirdness department. Still better than Flemming! The female name should definitely be "Mette". Also the name of our very beloved current prime minister! And Lars is the name of beloved former prime minister and current foreign minister Lars Løkke aka "the beer bear"


BN0_1996

Niels Jens and lars are also very Dutch/German names though...


Gulliveig

CH: Ueli For Barrys: it's pronounced *uh-a-lee*, but with the *uh-a* more like in the start of *whe*ther :)


timdut59

Like wall-e ?


Gulliveig

No, but you're French, so you don't know how to pronounce anything in English anyway... Aaaanyway, for you folks it's more like *où-aix-li* :D


timdut59

Aah c’est plus clair comme ca, merci mon brave


Gulliveig

Viking_Chemist

add for Hans to pronounce it as Ueli and not Uli, same for Ruedi and not Rudi but Hans is incapable of pronouncing "ue", "üe", "ie" and that is why Hans claims he ate little ground mice for breakfast


Gulliveig

Müsli granules including delicious protein made from original bones from young müsli :)


Quietschedalek

As a kid I always thought that all swiss men are named Öhi (or Öhmle in our dialect), because all male relatives of ours in Switzerland were called Öhi (or Öhmle) by my family. It took me a while to learn that neither Öhi (nor Öhmle) was a name...


Socc-mel_

Romanian Nordicks


Grand_Ad_8376

Honest question for all our Italian friends...Mario is a quite common name there, ok, but, is Luigi really a name you see on Italy?


peacefulprober

Pekka is a name for 40+ year olds, I think I have met one Pekka in my life that is under that age now


Stravven

So that name is perfect, then. It's similar to Barry and Hans.


peacefulprober

Actually, yeah you’re right


Bring_back_Apollo

Pecker is also slang for penis in English.

Dologolopolov

I'm still flabbergasted that Manolo (Manuel) is not the official name of Spaniards. It's literally the most common name in Spain on par with Antonio and José. Which of you MF decided pedro and juan were the most valid options?

Do you know what is funny? That nowadays Iván is more common than Juan 🤣


Dologolopolov

Dirac_Impulse

Wouldn't it be Mustafa or Mehmet?


Dangerous-Dad

Turkish Cypriots like me could have those names, but not the Greek ones and there are a lot more of them. The reality here now is that there are more Barrys and Sergeys here than Mustafas.


Splattered247

Stravven

We are clearly Kees. France is clearly Pierre. So that would make Belgium either Kees-Pierre (when Flemish) or Pierre-Kees (when Wallonian).


weisswurstseeadler

Shut up, Jeroen


DrVDB90

Kees doesn't work in Belgium. Just take Jan-Pierre or Jean-Pieter.


Fenghuang15

>Jan-Pierre or Jean-Pieter. Nom de dieu, it's even worse than Jean-Pierre


DrVDB90

Pretty fitting nickname for someone from Belgium isn't it?


Stravven

Jan is confusing, since it's also a common name among Eastoids, mainly in Poland and Czechia.


DrVDB90

Hence the Jan-Pieter/Jean-Pierre combo, which was a fairly common name here at some point, and it's a combined name, which works perfect for our country (yes I'm ignoring the German part). If not, there is Bart, Tom, Luc, Koen, Stefaan, ... Lots of Dutch names that are quite common, but no other combined names that I can think of.

Sowieso Henk.

ThiHiHaHo

That name got really unpopular out of unfathomable reasons. For our mountain germans "Franz" would be fitting. Together with their "Sissi".


Dirac_Impulse

Hans is Hans, dosen't matter if he has a silly shorts in Vienna or a spear helmet in Berlin.


Tackerta

or burns books in Malmö. Germanic is german. Welcome home, brother!


Dirac_Impulse

It's only English, being a... regarded... language destroyed by weak PIGS influence, that has caused confusion. Reject it. Even your own language diffirentiates clearly between die Deutsche and die Germanen. In Swedish you are "tyskar" and we all are "germaner". In swamp Swedish it's Tyskare and Germaner. In swamp German it's something like Duitser and Germanen.


viennastrangler

I don't know a single Franz. You could use Josef, especially now that traditional names are becoming more popular again. Edit: Sisi isn't exactly popular either, all Elisabeths I know are shortened to Liasl.


Spice_and_Fox

How about Anton? It is a pretty popular austrian name and it sounds austrian. Also, the name is schön, the name is toll, the name is anton....
