I gotta got with ‘Arriba’. It is fun as hell to say and indicates good times.

Definitely one of my favorite personal names, for reasons I admit are entirely biased.

The Basque equivalent, askatasun, has been a personal favourite of mine for very similar reasons.

Although, as you can see, it’s a bit less ethereal and a bit more…pointy, I guess.

Meshugana is a good one. It is Yiddish for “crazy person” apparently, though the girl who explained it to me said it was used more like an expression for trouble-maker or wiseguy.
