[Opinions] Re: German Names, again
Jannis is becoming pretty popular in Germany, as well as Jannik and spelling variants of both names. Lucas is over the top popular, but is mostly Lukas. Wanja is pretty uncommon, I have never met anyone called Wanja. The same with Prisca which is not at all a common name in Germany. Fränk has to be some odd variant of German Frank, probably a nn or else a Bavarian/Austrian variant of the name. I have never in my life met anyone called Kiri here in Germany, it's very uncommon, although Kira is pretty well-known and I know two girls called Kira. Joschi can be a nn of many names, such as Joshua, Joseph... But I'm not too sure of this because the name is pretty uncommon in Germany, i.e. not popular. I only know one young actor called Joshi or Yoshi, but then again: Yoshi is also a Japanese name...
