"That's not even a real name!"

So we all know that Himaruya Just Didn't Care when assigning some of the human names, right?
What I want to see is a human from whatever Nation-tan's own country catching on to the fact that that Nation-tan isn't human... by being all "WTF" at that Nation-tan's human name. Can be looking at their ID, can be by the human being a receptionist and having to look at the human name, but either way they get all suspicious and whatnot.
Keep in mind that most of the names ARE real names, despite the topic title... just not normal or culturally accurate one.
Anon would prefer:
-Lithuania (who has a name usually used for DOGS)
-Finland (I can imagine Random Human asking if "Tino" is a typo for "Timo", then getting told that no, it isn't. AMONG OTHER THINGS...)
-Germany (who doesn't even have a last name)
-Switzerland (do I even NEED to explain?)
Multiple fills are loved.

You're right captcha, it COULD happen at a restaurant!

i second this. i want to see it. XD
but i need to add that: certain parents can give the most horrible names ever without having to think too much about it, like that poor girl who was called "Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii" and had to sue her parents to change her name. so. and of course, lovino and feliciano have never been italian names at all. (and vargas is a spanish surname.).
and francis. i mean. francis? it should have been francois.

except that Francis really is a French name. So if anyone fill this, just to help; Francis IS a French name. go ask another French if you don't believe it. (François also exist by the way)

Yeah, agreeing with the anon above me. Francis is a perfectly fine name. Sure, François is more common, but this French-speaking anon (not from France, but whatever) can count at least 8-10 guys names Francis she has known over the years, at least one of them French-from-France, not to mention many many women with the female version of the name (Francine)
(sorry. anon is just a tbit tired of seeing people complain about Francis' name.)

Oh, and forgot to add; Francine is the female version of Francis, while Françoise would be the female version of François. Both are common names for older women, but not at all for young girls these days. Francis and François have been popular names forever, so you get guys from all generations with those names. And they're often nicknamed 'Frank', ahah. Well, at least where I live.

Depending on when the fill is set, certain countries have laws that dictate what you can and can't name your kid. The Nordics, in particular, have this. (Even Finland, which if you read the strip with Hanatamago in it is kind of surprising.)
Feliciano is an Italian name...

It means happy/lucky and is used in both Italian and Spanish speaking countries. Derived from the Roman/Latin Felicianus from Felix. Used frequently as a personal name within the Italian culture, as well as being found commonly as a surname.

This Finn!anon would like to note that Tino is in fact a real name in Finland... it's not a very common one, but about 2000 people have it (as opposed to just shy of 59,000 Timos). Väinämöinen as a surname however is like calling yourself along the lines of John Beowulf. And according to the ever-helpful Population Register Centre name search, seven Finns have used it anyway ^^;
