As is usually the case, blame can be laid squarely at the feet of the French.

It's a place to store your suits ...of armor

The rugs are named after Danish towns and places so we can walk all over them.

Light fixtures named after East and West German cities that come in one of two color temperatures.

not our fault you can’t be arsed to change the name lol

Blåhaj

that just means blue shark

It's a latin word for armarĭum, a place were artifacts and weapons (armas) are stored

I can't explain why but I really hate old people furniture names. Hearing the word credenza makes me twitch like a CIA sleeper agent being activated.

I totally get this, that one family guy scene where Brian doesn't know what a Davenport was (same). I always thought a credenza was like a patio, didn't even realize it was furniture.
