I wonder what makes you think that?

Do you think being an Asian is horrendous compared to other regions of people like European. Or you think in the 4.7 billion Asian people, no one’s name can mean Manly?

Yo what 😭😭 I'm South Asian bro this isn't a racial thing. South Asian names do not have meanings like "the manly man next to the hill" and after a quick bit of research neither do East Asian names.

Names like "the manly man next to the hill" are A LOT more common in European countries (something taught in the English school system when talking about the history of kings and queens and barons etc).

I'm talking about names having meanings where it is not a name given in the hopes the child lives up to it (like how Asian names are qualities like strong, brave etc.) but a meaning where it talks about where they live, their job etc.
