My mother called him Eric, because he reminded her of a blond viking, who always had a few cuts a scrapes from fighting with other dogs somewhere. 🐕 One day one of our Mexican neighbors came by and said, "Hey, that's my dog." Mom told him he treated our place like a one of his homes and we called him "Eric". He said, "His name is Jose." I figured he had a different name at each house he visited. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a video yesterday that showed how very many names are basically "John". I wouldn't be surprised if Jose and Eric are basically the same name! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then perhaps you'll be surprised - because they're not. John is from the Hebrew name Yohanan which means 'graced by God'. Eric comes from old Norse by putting together the words E- (aina-) and -Ríkr, which can be translated a variety of ways, meaning 'a ruler/nobleman/rich person unlike any other/without peers/alone'. Though it's more likely to mean 'a ruler mightier than any other' than 'a lonely rich guy'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly in Viking terms, Erik is not less popular than John or Jose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zhaoying Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 There have been discussions here on the Forum about "Hey" vs. "Hello" and even the much-despised, "Oy"! I just saw a comedy "fake news" video with the script: "A Northerner has been accused of terrorizing London by walking around saying, 'Hello'." Found it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaithLynnSayes Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Today my daughter said something to me that I didn't think was the most polite, so I told her she needed to say it again in a nicer way. She repeated it with a British accent. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
