      This person would probably be able to get away with living in the US without too many looks but this is a slang term for vagina in the UK so they might have a rough childhood there.

        It’s a slang term for ass in the US, so I’m guessing they’d get shit for it here, too.

      Isn’t that just a diminutive of Frances?

        No, it’s a Southern French name.

      I love that that is the name of the mascot for ‘big ass fans’ they have a donkey (ass) called Fanny.
