Today, I realized that in French, my name means "penis." This wouldn't be so bad if my dad wasn't fluent in French. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I discovered that my name literally means "burden". This wouldn't be so bad if both my mother and father knew this when they named me. FML
Today, I learned that my parents' nickname for my fiancé is "dickwad." FML
Today, my French wife chose the name of our unborn baby girl. She wants to call her Fanny and won't change her mind. FML
Where did you learn that one?
Today, I tried to impress a French student by saying “Bonjour!” but instead said “Bordel!” which means “Brothel.” She laughed, and so did every one of the french students around us. My cultural street cred is officially dead. FML
Today, I found out I was named after the woman my dad was having an affair on my mom with. FML
Today, a friend informed me that my dog's name means "penis" in Greek. I live in a predominantly Greek neighbourhood, and apparently I've been screaming for "dong" every evening for the past 3 years. No wonder they don't talk to me much. FML
Today, my girlfriend named my penis "little baby carrot." FML
C'est la langue de l'amour!
Today, my French teacher set up a role-play scenario to act out in front of the class. During one of my lines, I mispronounced a phrase and called my teacher sexy. FML
Today, I found out that the loving nickname my Chinese mother has been calling me my entire life essentially translates to "little retard". FML
Today, I found out I was named after the woman my dad used to stalk when he was in high school. FML

nice... now you need to find someone with a name that's slang for ****** and you have a solemate.

Actually, it could also be "Zizi", but I'm assuming it's Kiki because that seems more plausible. FYL OP, but I guess it's a nice way to break the ice, no? "Hi, what's your name?" "Penis. What's yours?" :)

Yes, it's probably a slang, like Vanni said. Anyway, Google Translate gave me Robinet for ****. That sounds like a name. Edit: Or, what #33 said, since they seem to know what they're talking about.

We know English here. Not French. We won't know unless we know the language or do research. just be thankful your name isn't actually penis.

Something in Yahoo FR. « QUESTION : How many synonyms do you know of the word zizi (slang for penis)? BEST ANSWER : bite, queue, verge, kiki, penis, engin, membre, willy, zob, teb » (translated from French to English :/, except for the synonyms)

Don't say "we" in general. There are actually people here who do indeed speak the language, such as myself. You don't have to whine because you can't speak French.

I second that since I speak french too. Next time, #40, say "some of us" not "we."
