[Facts] Re: Meaning and origin of the name Reichen

in reply to
a message by Reichen's mummy
Reichen, with a ch sound not pronounceable in English, is a
German
verb meaning "to reach". I would like to emphasize that it is a
German
WORD, and not a
German
NAME. In
German
it would be the equivalent of naming an English baby "Reach".
