Anyone heard this name?

It's a Hungarian airline

We had a friend in Bulgaria whose name was Malev.

My grandmother’s name was Thirza never heard that name since..

Thanks 👍

Oh dear .
It doesn't have a nice meaning in Urban slang .

There will be thousands and thousands of foreign names we have never heard of .

Shinamae my cousin’s MiL was called Thirza, she lived in Derbyshire, any connection?

Reminds me of Thora Hird (Herd?)

I don’t understand this post sorry Wingey

Sounds Turkish, or Hungarian?

It’s an African name.

Bluebelle, All sorts of people have pincushions, surely? Maybe she was teaching the class needlecraft - a useful skill which, along with basic cookery, cleaning & home maintenance, ought to be a core subject in schools. It all comes in handy as we go through life.

Malev was the name of the Hungarian Airline, which suddenly ceased trading leaving passengers stranded.

She taught needlework!

I remember having to make a pincushion in needlework at school. I still have it after all these years. I hated the subject then but I do like to sew now.

Ah!

I didn't automatically jump to that conclusion - there are occasions when I'm not the sharpest tool in the box...

It may be better if posters starting a thread were clear in the OP rather than a gnomic sentence.

On a teachers ‘pincushion’ could have been colloquial for on a teachers bottom for all I knew
