You do realise we're in a thread about etymology right?

Your nice has a beautiful name that might be a shortened form of Sieglinde or Linda, but i would take a wild guess that she's a german girl who's family roots are in eastern asia.

Uh, no, i saw it in c/all. My bad.

who's family roots are in eastern asia.

Nope. But internet and airplanes changed things. Which is what i tried to say before.
But a scandinavian origin (the name), i didn't thought of that, thanks.
