do you think that's his name on the door Fanie is a variation of Stefanus which would be Stephen in English. It would then vary to become Steve, Stevie or Stevo in English. In Afrikaans Stefanus would become Fanus, Fanie or Stef. Usually lost in translation this one certainly gains momentum/impact as it gets varied. His surname Kloppers would probably be Dutch in origen and mean Knocker or Beaters so adds another level of silliness. Dutch surnames can be hugely amusing Back to the car in question. Interesting race number too. |
