Can "Yucca" be a English name?

Never use "fanny" in any English speaking country outside North America. You'll be considered to be extremely coarse. It has a meaning similar to "piece of a**" or "bearded clam" Also napkin has a different meaning and is put on a fanny. Use serviette in non-US restaurants or stores to avoid embarrassment.
