In Japanese it means mushroom, not sure what else (the nintendo character toad is called kinopio-kun in japan). But really I just randomly stumbled on it years ago and it sounded unique and interesting to me
- rjh29 4y agoIn Japanese mushroom is kinoko. kinopio is the name for Toad, probably comes from kinoko but doesn't mean anything by itself :)
- stavros 4y agoAhh, ok. It means "publish/share" in Greek.
- pketh 4y agoThat's a really awesome coincidence, maybe I'll tell people that that's what it means from now on :D
- elorant 4y agoThe Greek word is "κοινοποιώ". It derives from "koino", which means public, and "poio" which means acting/doing something. So it literally means making something public. Sounds like a hell of a match for what your product does.
- someweirdperson 4y agoAlso, those linked objects grow fungus-like. Actually, probably more lichen-like.
- frogpelt 4y agoκινόπιο means "cinnamon" according to Google translate.
- gryson 4y agoThe Nintendo character Kinopio (Toad) is a play on words: kinoko (mushroom) + Pinocchio
- m12k 4y agoI was just about to ask if it is pronounced like Pinocchio or kino-pio, guess that clears it up, thanks.
