A bit of a humorous aside -- in popular Russian children's literature,
"Fedora" is the name of a woman who was such a poor housekeeper, that
all her belongings ran away from her screaming, including plates,
silverware, cups and glasses (who all smashed themselves in the process)
so she was left with only cats and roaches for company.
In Portugal the word fedora isn't used directly, but we've got
"fedorenta",
which means something that stinks :-)
