Politician given green-light to name developer's new streets with synonyms for greed and deceit

Oddo? What a crazy name. Pronounced Odd-oh? Or, Oh-Doe, like the DS9 character?

Anyway the Founders – er, I mean-- the Developers need not worry:

  • 95% of all residents will think “cupidity” relates to Cupid.

  • 100% will think “avidity” relates to “being avid.” Which it does. I think Oddo screwed up here: “avaritia” is the Latin word for greed.

  • 105% will have no idea what “fourberie” could mean. It’s very likely not even a word.
