Two names that have been on my mind recently. I have a Great-Great Aunt who i've always heard being referred to as "Sis" and just found out that it's short for Sicily. She was born in Scotland in the 1900's, I wonder how unusual that name would have been back then.
Winnipeg is a name I heard on the show Snowpiercer, 'Winnie' for short. I quite liked it until I discovered it means "dirty waters". And presumably most people will think of the city in Canada.
wdyt?
