What kind of a name is "Katja Dieckow"???

Question

She is a German olympic diver - pronounced "Cut 'ya d**k off"!

Were her parents taking the p**s or what?

Answer 1

It sounds Eastern Europe perhaps Polish.

Answer 2

Katja is a common female German name these days and "Dieckow" is definatly Polish. There are a lot of Polish-Germans these days so that is why there is Lukas Podolski on the German Football team.

Answer 3

Thank you, thank you, for making my day!

I thought I had been the only one who questioned the name "cut ya d**k off" when it was first announced :)

_________

It kinda reminds be of Andromache (Trojan Hector's wife) her name simply meant man hatter

Answer 4

Haha, that's an interesting point you made.  But really, she's German, so there's no way that her parents intentionally did that.  There are plenty of other foreign (and English) words that sound funny in other languages.  

Answer 5

It's a funny name

Answer 6
