pickledpennies asked: I have a strange question for you! I'm learning Finnish by myself, and just now I was learning about animals. Apparently 'ant' is 'muurahainen' and it made me wonder if your name is anything to do with ants? o: sorry to be weird. </englishpersonquestions>
It does mean ant! My name comes from “muurain” though, which is a cloudberry in finnish, it’s a common berry to use in desserts and such in the part of Finland where I’m from :3 (Can also be called “lakka”, or even “hilla” ;D)
