When my parents decided to call their beautiful baby daughter “Midori”, the Japanese liqueur company hadn’t released their sweet green alcohol yet.
“Midori” is a common girl’s name in Japan. It means the colour green.
These days when I tell my name, people often say,
“Oh, cool!! The Green Liqueur!!!”
...................Cheers!!!
