Derya means Ocean

sorry bubbles



Derya is derived from Persian. It is twinned with Deniz and used as Deniz Derya.

I know someone called Deniz Derya for real. I was often called that.


No gender distinction?

(Now we've really messed up the game!)



Deniz is a hermaphrodite, sorry a unisex name. delete 'hermaphrodite'.


This, coming from you ... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks, Bubbles. See, I'm not the only one. I was told by a Turk that the "c" with the hook below it is pronounced like the "sh" in English.
