Comment on We should name the moon. Most people don't call their pets "dog" or "cat".

Moon is for unbased germanic languages like yours, no offense. Bar bar bar.
It’s luna in latin, selene in Greek and I think Arabs call it qmar.

It’s just a dumb name in whatever origin you prefer.
I could possibly accept Luna if it were it’s official designation and everybody used it in every context.

If it helps, it’s the official designation and there are some hundreds of millions of dudes that use it in every context

I disagree with the official designation. And the # is impossible to prove.

This is getting out of hand, but the official designation is… you know… the official designation. And for the number, you only have to add up spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, rumanian and Russian speakers… there are other countries but you get the idea
