What's in a name

 

What's in a name


BiBo is the nickname that our friends call us as a couple.
It is a sound-alike of:
- the meaningless sounds that babies make: bibô
- the sound of a choo choo train: bí bo xěnh xịch

We have also come to know that other languages might have a meaning for this word.
美貌 - (pronounce bibo) - in Japanese Kanji, these words mean beauty. An example is the title of a Japanese song 美貌の青空 (bibo no aozora) which translates to Beautiful Blue Sky. This song can be heard in the movie Babel, you can search for it on Youtube, for example this one.
