What does my name mean?

[pocorina]

Can anybody take a guess at what my name means? (I'm not giving any hints here).

By that of course I mean "pocorina", which is obviously not my real name.

Any takers?

[m1469]

little sprout

[pocorina]

little sprout

Is that a joke?

[m1469]

You're not Corina from the Post Office are you?


Jef

Little Sprout....LMAO.  Maybe we should just use that until s/he fesses up.

[Siberian Husky]

im guessing little sprout

[Bacfokievrahms]

what pocorina, are you little sprout or not? c'mon fess up.

[chopinisque]

Anirocop?  That's it backwards.

[xvimbi]

Pocorino ... hmm ... the name of an Italian cheese spelled wrong?

Perhaps, a little RINO (abbreviation for "Republican In Name Only", a disparaging term for a member of the United States Republican Party whose words and actions are thought to be too fiscally or socially liberal)

I hadn't heard that one.  I'm going to get some mileage out of that.

But, back on topic....I'm sticking with m1469's "Little Sprout"....classic.

tds... initals best not to mix up.


Does pocorina have anything to do with meaning "little?"

Does it have anything to do with Chopin?  Maybe a nickname for a piece, or a marking in one of his pieces?

Is it Spanish or Italian?

[Tash]

or it could mean 'Try Dissecting Something'

i have no idea what pocorina means. it reminds me of when our music class was sitting our trial hsc exam and my friend had been asking me the meanings of all these words the night before and one was 'bremuto' and i was like dude bremuto is not a real term! so to add some humour to our exam everyone in the class opened the second question with 'use of bremuto in the opening sequence', meanwhile our teacher was like what the hell does bremuto mean. it was quite humerous haha

[chopinisque]

Is pocorino a type of pokemon or something?

[pocorina]

In truth, Pocorina doesn't mean anything. I thought maybe it did, and it sounded like it in this song once. But then I realised I heard it wrong. I was just checking, to see if it meant something.

It means "Perfect".

Definately pocorina = Perfect octaves can obliterate randomly in new age (music)?

NO, NO, NO! pocorina means flavoured pop corns!. i repeat, flavoured pop corns! it's the only thing pocorina can possibly mean. well, lemme explain it to you guys, ok?

here:

the word "poco" is nothing but the coolest, yet to be universally accepted, term for pop corn. yeah...only so makes sense.....

rina, on the other hand, means happy, colorful, cheerful or flavorful.

so...,yes, you got it! it is... the happy,... colorful...pop corns ( aka flavored pop corns! )!

there, there, we finally got everything sorted out.

tds*calms himself down*

[fred smalls]

Oh, now that you have explained the orgins of the name I understand completely. 
How wrong can I get. 

[pocorina]

TDS, you are a genius, and I would like to enquire within as to your age?

[tds]

TDS, you are a genius, and I would like to enquire within as to your age?

thank you for your kind words. oh, lemme tell you a lil story: i happened to talk with a wise, dignified man once. we talked for quite a while--talked about this and that, you name it. just so happened we, too, touched the subject of "genius". he calmly said to me with a most steady voice, " genius is an accident of nature".

pocorina, i have been told before that i was not a genius. i believe that more than many other things. you see, also, by this wise man's definition, i am certainly not "it". i believe my existance was planned and blessed. best, tds

ps. "age and time are nothing but themselves" otd

[pocorina]

tds, you should be a politician! for you didn't answer my question.

[tds]

tds, you should be a politician! for you didn't answer my question.

aww, pocorina, don't tell me that. you know i dont wanna be a politician
i thought i answered your question (my own way). you dont think i did? 'tried my best . tds*walks out quietly*

[pocorina]

Stop crying like an ickle baby, tds. 

A kiss: 

On a more sane note, I realise you seem to engage in general apathy, so ignore my comment about politics. 

I think I understood you. This is what you meant: Age does not matter, it is merely a number assigned to us all. What matters is personality, genius and experience. The rest is irrelevant.

The rest is irrelevant.

i didn't say that. lol

my apathetic note: i hope you'll recover soon from your sickness.

warmest, tds

[pocorina]

I am back, but now a "newbie". read my tuberculosis topic to see why.

about the irrelevant bit, i meant that AGE was irrelevant, didn't make it clear.
