    I just looked up what "pommel" means. It is the end of the grip of a sword, a synonym to hit someone/something, a part of a saddle, and there is a gymnastic device that's called "pommel horse". So what does Coco Pommel mean? Hit the coconut? Ride the coconut? Do gymnastics on the coconut? It's nuts.

      @broniebrown It's a horse pun. A pommel is part of a saddle.

        @ceruleanspark Yeah. But it cracks me up that pommel means to hit something and it is also a part of a sword. In DnD I had a rogue character that had the "Pommel Smash" attack power and I can't resist thinking of it when I read "Coco Pommel".

          @broniebrown the word you're thinking of that means "to hit something" would be "pummel", not pommel

            @rarity According my translators both pummel and pommel mean the same for hitting something.

              @broniebrown okay, apparently pommel is also a lesser used form of pummel;
