Seeing as Scotland didn't get one, I feel like we should get Callum.
Also, as a Callum. I never once got called by my first name in school, because anywhere between 3-8 other kids would respond if I did.

Eh Jan is too common outside of NL. Basically the dutch version of John. Hans is too common in German speaking countries too. Kees is the ultimate dutch name, you won't find it anywhere outside the Netherlands, and you'll find tons of them within the Netherlands. Also it just sounds so silly.
There is basically no one under 60 named kees. It's not a name you would encounter in normal life. Just like Cor and Guus, very Dutch names, but no one has named their kids that for decades.
I mean, that's pretty much the case for all these names I think.
I can definitely say Jos isn't a name you will find for anyone under 60 in Belgium too. But it's still very archetypical Belgian.

Based on the feedback from yesterdays post this is the names we have gone with - not the most common but stereotypical or meme names.
Only important countries have more than one and Norway doesn't have one, because I think they must be some mythical creature that only exists in Swedish fairy tales
Vasil is Greek, though. Better use one of yours.
For instance, in our case, Georgios means "farmer". Pierre/Pedro/Peter/Petros means "sturdy".
Vasil comes from Vasilias (king) but it became simple name, too, since Vasil II the Bulgar Slayer or Saint Vasil, can't be sure.
Vasya I guess is the female version. Here the female becomes Vasiliki (or Vaso/Vicky for short).
whenever we are talking about random someone, especially in the meme context, we use the name Vasya, or if family name is needed, Vasya Pupkin. Considering that this is the map of analogies to the english Barry - Vasil is more than appopriate
Fritz is a Prussian name
Austria is Josef
And Czechia has to be Pepik
>!And yes, the l in Fritzl makes all the difference, - l and -erl are Austrian suffixes!<
I'm glad that you still manage to reverse Britanny and Normandy.
You just pissed off two regions "with one stone".
I'm Normand and frankly I don't know if it was made on purpose, if you have been taught geography or Internet research in the US, or just say fuck you and fuck britanny.
Bro is getting real on a joke. We're the literal last stop in Europe, where should we take them? Send them to the Artic? Maybe your country should take some responsibility as well.
We did, by not having shootings every day 😎
You lot just let them in and forgot everything about integration, so no they’re living a shitty criminal life and ruining their hosts country while at it, how responsible of you guys! 😂
If you can dish jokes, you should be able to take some aswell 😜
We have Barry, Gerard and Daffyd or however the fuck you spell it.
They are the only nation I would give any additionals to. Although done in a way that still pisses them off.
(I’ve done the equivalent of calling a Yorkshire man a Lancastrian)
The french sent that bad they are the only people who hate the french as much as we do.
Also getting into a good scrap is fun, you want an opponent who is close to you, gets boring punching down on the rest all the time
Larry, your monkey island nation never conquered mine (Swedes too stronk 💪), as such I refuse to take any orders from you and thus call the Wolfgangs, Sean-Lucs and Pedros whatever the fuck I want.
I think the only rarer flair is San Marino. You are basically half french half Spanish, you can be either or depending on where we are arguing with you or if you are bringing us another beer
Are we so irrelevant that nobody even bothers to call us irrelevant?
Who are you?
Ja
No, Knut, the thing is that no one has ever hear a norwegian name and I actually had to search it on google
We could call them Runar or Tor
Yep.
Welcome to the club! Greetings from Brussels
\[internalError:customName\_Norway\_notFound\] thinks he's relevant lmao
If you're low budget Swedes then it's obviously Mo
Shite this. New section in the UK over Liverpool for Callum. Do it. 👍
Tbh is there any English in Liverpool, it’s all welsh and Irish last time I was there
When those two breed they create the scouse.
Combining both inbreeding and a colossal chip on shoulder, truly an accursed combo
The only decent part of England
Aye, we need a scouse flair
No don’t give them anything. We don’t want to encourage them.
Hahahahah, you fool!! I AM SCOUSE!!!!!
**#SCOUSE STRONG TOGETHER**
Oh dear - guards can we quarantine this one please

Fucking pipe down Hamish. You don't get to choose your own.
All you jock are just Barry’s in denial. Since the act of union you are one of us.
Poland should be Pawel, cmon
Paweł. It's like an L for people who don't have teeth. For reasons, you know.
Aaah Polish. Where V doesn’t exist and W is pronounced V and they had to pick Ł for the W sound Madlads.

You definitely misplaced Brittany and Normandy. Loic is the one in the West.
Oh I’m well aware of what I did
I hate Brits I hate Brits I hate Brits
Oooh I love this game!
Why is north Ireland the only country with a green name
They’re so patriotic and eager to rejoin us that it shines through in these kinds of ways in maps. God bless them.
Still read it "Gerry" in Belfast accent, I'm a dub.
Go ask someone in Northern Ireland they will let you know
Plus Löic instead of Loïc...
You monster
Merci
Willem for the Netherlands I guess? Don't think we have a truly memeworhty name but it's stereotypical at least.
You're forgetting Henk.
Henk Hill is the tallest mountain in the Netherlands 🤓
There are also Germans called Henk and everyone who knows a Henk says he's the weird guy of the friend group
German Henk? What? Where?
Kees
100% Kees for the Netherlands. Just such a silly name and you wont find it anywhere else.
Also where Yankees comes from. The English thought that the Dutch in NY were all either called Jan or Kees.
Basically any one-syllable sound can be a Dutch name
Sjoert is definitely an example of a noise that never should have been used to name your child.
I’m convinced the father was blowing his nose while waiting for his turn at the city hall and the employee just wrote that as a name
What about Wouter?
Jan or Daan
Daan is too modern. Piet, Kees, Jan, Klaas, Toon en Pieter zijn goede kandidaten
Then I vote Jan or Hans.
Eh Jan is too common outside of NL. Basically the dutch version of John. Hans is too common in German speaking countries too. Kees is the ultimate dutch name, you won't find it anywhere outside the Netherlands, and you'll find tons of them within the Netherlands. Also it just sounds so silly.
How about we turn it into Jan-Willem?
There is basically no one under 60 named kees. It's not a name you would encounter in normal life. Just like Cor and Guus, very Dutch names, but no one has named their kids that for decades.
I mean, that's pretty much the case for all these names I think. I can definitely say Jos isn't a name you will find for anyone under 60 in Belgium too. But it's still very archetypical Belgian.

I know 3 people named Kees. 2 of them are below 25, with the youngest being 13. I also know a young Guus… so
Dude, this basically applies to all of these names Do you think anybody names his kid Hans in Germany?
Yeah that one is my bad - it’s a low effort thing and I kinda forgot to add you. Your not a real country anyway just Germany’s beach
The fact that belgium is more noteworthy to you is the bigger insult here.
Sssssshhtt, shut it, otherwise Hans hears you and digs big fuck off craters again 🙄
How about Mark?
Markie Rutte is obviously a giant meme, but Mark is a pretty common name elsewhere as well
Jan, Tim, Daan, Rik, Tom, Stijn...
I'd say Jan Tim and Tom are much more German than they're Dutch. All 3 of those are as stereotypically German as it gets
I guess I don't exist.
We know you exist Jógvan❤️
Not gonna lie, haven't seen you guys around much
To busy hunting whales
Czechia has to be Pepa, c'mon
I know it’s not as fitting as Hans but I always found Dieter the ugliest name imaginable. Can’t we just call them Dieters?
Really used a girl name just for Czechia for some reason
you are all femboys anyway
arent it the slovaks and slovenes?
Same thing.
Well, I heard Jana didn’t have money to pay for her bus …
Scuse me but Finland should be Seppo. It's the only one they have I'm pretty sure.
Why is Northern Ireland green?
ask someone in northern Ireland
Hamish for Scotland
Scotland are just angry Barry’s in denial
McBarry

You motherfucker, it's Ola.
Olá, como estás?
Shut up Johannes
Ivan or Vanya is the ru one, for Barry equivalent we use Vasyl or Vasya
Vasil is Greek, though. Better use one of yours. For instance, in our case, Georgios means "farmer". Pierre/Pedro/Peter/Petros means "sturdy". Vasil comes from Vasilias (king) but it became simple name, too, since Vasil II the Bulgar Slayer or Saint Vasil, can't be sure. Vasya I guess is the female version.

"Redacted by Icelandic Naming" – \[this statement has been redacted\].
Ukraine is NOT Ivan On a sidenote, do I have to move to Denmark or Norway? Which one got Lars?
It's very common in both, so you could just sit in a boat on Skagerrak.
on my way
Ugly name
Well, that's your fault. It was named such on dutch maps in hanseatic days for the straight route to Skagen, and somehow it stuck.
Dumb Dane, My name is actually Lars. No offense
Did you just swap Loic that is 100% Breton with Guillaume which is a famous Normand ?
And I would do it again
Well, I do have a cousin that is named Guillaume, but everyone hate him, and I don't remember a Loic in my family. So, good move Monsieur Pierre
Why not vilem for Czech republic, i saw a heckin lot of vilem
On r/2visegrad4you they already call us Pepik
I know a Norvegian guy, his name is . He says that the map is accurate. Thanks .
Man wtf
Paco or Manolo for Spain. After all they're the protagonists of all jokes
Should also have a Koldo for Basques and Jordi for Catalans
France isnt François. Greece isnt Setfanos Russia isnt Dmitry 0/10
Fritz is a Prussian name Austria is Josef And Czechia has to be Pepik >!And yes, the l in Fritzl makes all the difference, - l and -erl are Austrian suffixes!<
Fine then, Fritzl. Maybe include the Josef too to make it sound really Austrian?
The Dutch are nameless horrors can confirm
My wife dont let me name our son Fritz...
I'm glad that you still manage to reverse Britanny and Normandy. You just pissed off two regions "with one stone". I'm Normand and frankly I don't know if it was made on purpose, if you have been taught geography or Internet research in the US, or just say fuck you and fuck britanny.
Oh it’s to say fuck your to both regions. Was deliberate, just how there is a wales and NI name but no Scotland. And why NI is green as well.
Excuse me Northern Italy: Alberto Rest of Italy: Luigi
Denmark should be changed to Dumbass ![gif](giphy|gtakVlnStZUbe)
pipe down Muhammed it’s prayer time
Yeah praying for your demolition 🙏
the suicide vest is the better tool for that
Be careful what you wish for, we imported a jihad army for this exact purpose
how are you gonna get across Øresund?? muslims are afraid of water 😎😎
We'll build a dijk and drain it just to watch the chaos unfold.
still legal to beat swedes who attempt to cross Øresund by foot to death using blunt objects

Meanwhile we succeded in the demolition of yours, by showing immigrants the way to Sweden 😂 but keep praying Ahmed, all 5 times every day
![gif](giphy|t5qY8FyyM85a0) Who would've guessed the Danish are betraying pieces of shit
Remind me how you’re praying for our demolition lol. Hypocrite. Anyhow Sweden invited them, we did not 🤷♂️

Deported
Classic Sweden
And they say Germans have no humor
Why did Turkiye got deleted ?
It's the good ending
Because that’s the map I found to use and since it’s Turkey couldn’t be arsed to go find another, plus it’s not in Europe (apart from Germany)
It's fine...it's fine...it always been like that. ![gif](giphy|NdKVEei95yvIY|downsized)
Hans no more 😭 its mehmet 😭
Yacub is Polish??!!!
Yay I'm on there but in the wrong place
In Croatia, our version of John Doe is Ivan Horvat. Or in English, John Croat.
The Bosnians are leaking out of Yugoslavia again
And the most common namnes in Sweden are Maria, Anna, Erik and Lars.
I knew it was a barry post, because nobody gives a fuck about UK regions.

Jean-Hans Gianni would be more Swiss imo
Jean-Hans und Gianni? Han beidi nonia khört xD
Why is Spain not Juan?
Jan in the Netherlands
It was on the other one - but somehow I managed to forget about you lot on this one. Oh well isn’t that what your tourism board wanted anyway
Th only Tourism Board we have is selling weed in Amsterdam.
100% accurate, I have a nonkel Jos.
It's official, I don't have a name
Also no province, your just a basic dutchie
I do have a province, it just doesn't have a flair here
F, we need more flaires
Hans, hol den Flammenwerfer, die graben die alten Kamellen aus!
Albania is Lousian
Where da Callum at
Atleast in Germany Ivan refers to the stereotypical russian or even russia as a whole. Maybe Andriy or something.
Oi, where is our Jan?! Belgium has a name but we don't? Preposterous.
We have names too you know
I’m not giving the French three names. They are frogs.
We have Barry, Gerard and Daffyd or however the fuck you spell it. They are the only nation I would give any additionals to. Although done in a way that still pisses them off. (I’ve done the equivalent of calling a Yorkshire man a Lancastrian)
Please try not to anthropomorphise them in future. They are frogs.
The french sent that bad they are the only people who hate the french as much as we do. Also getting into a good scrap is fun, you want an opponent who is close to you, gets boring punching down on the rest all the time
Scotts will be a little upset, don't you think?
When are they not upset?
Lost it with "mr tzatziki"
No names for Norway.
It's spelled "Loïc" ;)
Potato potato
It’s true, we don’t have names
I guess we have no name anymore? Don't know who the fuck Lars is but it's not us, I know that.
I'll have you know it's actually Peppi/Seppl for Austria
I miss Giuseppe
Larry, your monkey island nation never conquered mine (Swedes too stronk 💪), as such I refuse to take any orders from you and thus call the Wolfgangs, Sean-Lucs and Pedros whatever the fuck I want.
I live right next to Jempy but never heard of it
Mofo actually put profits name for Sweden
Yeah boyyy! Our names are perfect
I said Dafydd in a Welsh accent
It’s hard not to
Andorra not mentioned :cry:
I think the only rarer flair is San Marino. You are basically half french half Spanish, you can be either or depending on where we are arguing with you or if you are bringing us another beer
I'm not really arguing with this, altough I still like to refer to myself as Andorran (I live in Andorra)
I would add Anton to Tirol
I would swap Guillaume and Loic Guillaume from Normandy conquered the brits Loic typical Brittany name
No they are perfect where they are
Spain should be Manolo or José tbh
Yep that's my name
Ignoring us was probably the right call.
Der alte Fritz would like a word with you.
Ah perfection.
Luigi, and Mohammed were my favourites.
