[Opinions] Re: Moana
in reply to a message by Perrine
I think Moana has a nice sound if you pronounce it mo-AH-nah, but yes, the fact that it starts with "moan" may keep people from using it.
In Sweden and many other countries in Europe Moana's name is changed to Vaiana. Apparently it's because perfume manufacturer House Margot has registrated the brand "Moana Bouquet" around Europe. It may also be because Moana Pozzi is an Italian porn star...
(In Italy the movie is called Oceania.)
Does the sea exist
Because of our longing?
