I pilfered my name from Tolkiens Silmarillion. Mîm was A petty dwarf during the First Age.
Don’t know for sure how to pronounce it, but since “Mîms” are used as a replacement for “memes” in The appropriate sub’s on reddit, it probably Is something similar.
The brothers lionheart is peak <3 did you know that Astrid got the idea for that book after reading a headstone for two dead brothers in a cemetery in Sweden? I think that is so sweet and heartbreaking.
For a number of years, in my town’s cemetery, there was a little headstone for a stillborn baby and on the headstone they had written “Vi ses i Nangijala” = see you in nangijala. The last words Karl speaks before he dies.
A Norwegian friend of mine found the headstone and dragged me over to it and we both started bawling our non-scandinavian classmates didn’t understand what was happening while all the other Scandinavians were immediately like 😢
I love the story behind your username, friend! That is both clever and nerdy af xD
Also, love Germany! 🤗 have visited several times and it’s a beautiful country and cool people. I think the only criticism my parents had on one of our visits back in the 2000s was that the Germans have more horrific wallpaper than the British. Personally, I disagree. The British are way worse xD
