Chicane for a girl—(motor racing term)‘a set of tight flowing curves’ What better name for a girl?

For a girl: Vibrissa

For a boy: Rigor

Grease

Is the word

is the word

is the word

charmingly this could do for a boy or a girl!

Naming your kid Chitin would be a good way to see how tough he actually is…

For a girl: Hegemony.
