Nose is meant to inhale gases (air). Water vapour is a natural component of air, and is a gas. Liquid water is neither of those two things (even though you can inhale liquid water if you immediately spit it out through the mouth, it’s a cleansing technique).

I mean, it’s not healthy to be overweight and/or obese, compared to being normal weight and/or fit.

They might mean untreated depression (I didn’t read the article).

I know some French and never heard of Kairi meaning Melody. Would love to have a French speaker’s take on this, as I strongly suspect it’s not a French word at all. I can obviously be completely wrong here.

Me and my spouse had ONE rule when it came to naming our children: BOTH of us have to agree on (i.e. like) a name for it to be considered.
I can’t tell you how sad I’ve been by having to reject names that I absolutely loved, due to my partner not liking it. But equally, I didn’t like some of my partner’s choices, so it did go both ways.
I’d say that’s a pretty good rule, it has worked out well for us. We have now named our kids with names that we both like, and that fills me with joy.
I’m not trying to tell you what to do, just offer a different viewpoint maybe. If you would adopt this rule, names that only one of you fancy would be automatically discarded.

I’m not quite clear on the red shaded knee and fingers. Are those areas in shadow or otherwise dimmed from light?
