[Facts] Re: Sakizaya names
in reply to a message by elbowin
They're probably only meant as translations of historical figures' names. Same goes for mythological ones. For example, the Portuguese form of Cerberus is Cérbero, but I've never heard it used as a name. Even in Brazil, where a lot of names that are strictly historical or mythological in Portugal have been given to real people, there are limits to it.
I don't know anything about the Sakizaya people, but I'm pretty sure that they have no historical connection to Charlemagne an Aristotle, as Franks and ancient Greeks had no contact with Taiwan.
