As most of you know the Murano was named after a fine blown glass from the town of murano italy. But I also came to find out a hard way that Murano means something else in spanish. I was driving through a fast food restaurant one day ordering food and the drive-thru person asked me what kinda car was that, I said it is the new nissan murano. He immediately began to chuckle. I thought nothing of it. While he was filling my order a couple of his friends from the back came to take a peek as well as chuckled as well. When he came back to give me my food I asked him, why was everyone chuckling about my car. He told me that in spanish Murano means pig. I felt a lil embarassed at the time but know it is kinda humerous. So know all my friends call the MO the pig.
