I learned the word 'offal' the other day and i'm just so eager to use it as someone's name and disappointed that I didn't know this before naming fredrika
It's a great name, i love it
It's pronounced 'awful', it means garbage or refused, especially meat parts. it's perfect
@heatherhorns actually i'm pretty sure it specifically means intestines, in the context of meat preparation

@heatherhorns like we've never seen it used to mean garbage or refuse, only specifically intestines and specifically in the context of butchery
also in the context of ancient roman divination stuff i suppose
