Name Origins

Welcome to Flo's Business & Fun Blog

Hope your weekend is great !!! Mine is relaxing just like I planned it to be .. it's really nice to get away from work. Today we have the sun shinning brightly and that feels good :-) I'm happy with that!

Name Origins .. interesting!!!

Jacuzzi:

Named after the Italian-born American inventor, Candido Jacuzzi.

Badminton:

Formerly the game from India called Poona became temporarily known as Battledore and Shuttlecock by the British until they popularized the sport at Badminton, Gloucestershire, England, country home of the Duke of Beaufort in 1873.

Have a great Sunday!
