Does Minnie mean Fanjo where you live?

[Verynearlytea]

I love the name and had never heard that it was a name for female bits and bobs until looking on Mumsnet. I am considering it for DC2 (if a girl) but don't want to lump her with a yoni name.

So does Minnie mean Fanjo to you and if yes which county do you live in?

I would also be interested to know which areas Minnie is just the name of a mouse.

London / Surrey here and definitely a fanny name. Although weirdly it was a Mickey when I was little. I suspect I would find Disneyland a little disv

*disturbing

No fanny name here up north that I'm aware of, my grandmother and great-grandmother were Minnie's sorely tempted to use it myself!

Yep. Even my grandmother who was born in India in 1907 knew that one. Sorry.

Yep im in Merseyside but not Liverpool and its a nickname for fanny round here

Cambridgeshire - I have heard it called a minnie, but not often.
I wouldn't let it put you off. Slang terms come and go, who knows what they most used terms will be in a decades time?

I also think it's a family thing. Think it may be more common in some areas than others. We def use the term in Kent and Surrey where I grew up but then friends families in the same area have different terms so I don't think it matters where in the country you are!

Yes! I'm in Cambridgeshire. I do like the name though.

Would you call a child Fanny? That is the equivalent to the risk you're taking. I assume Fanny wasn't as widely associated with fanjo when people named their daughters Fanny.

Yes. I can never hear the name Minnie without tittering inside

I'm from Nottingham and haven't heard it used in that way there. Living in the south east now and haven't heard it used that way here, can't say I've spoken to any of my new neighbours about lady bits though!

I have a Minnie (well Amelia) age 9, I/we have never heard any comments relating to fanjos!

In fact only get compliments on it!

Yes from London and it's called a Minnie which I have passed down to my children now sorry!
Also heard of it as a Mary as well but not very often. Mainly just your Minnie moo!!
Never heard of fanjo though?!!
Out family also call it a noony... ???

Yes, I've heard it used as the female equivalent of Willy.

London here and we call it a Minnie too!

However in my part of London, there are a fe girls lulled Minnie. Not direct friends of my dds, but they are pretty good about. Mildly amusing, but not boully worthy.

Have you thought of mimi?

It's a Minnie in Wiltshire!!

I love the name Minnie- it never occurred to me it may be another name for your bits!

My friends daughter uses that term for her bits!

imip Mimi is my daughters middle name (was the name of my Granny)! I love it but DH was not keen for first name.

No, I haven't heard that before.

I know one, but it's short for Minerva

I've heard of it being called a minky but not a minnie! I know a little girl called Min and she's the sweetest, most intelligent thing ever
