Chinese is cool like that
Lobster is "dragon shrimp"
Crawfish is "little dragon shrimp"
Shrimp oddly enough is "mundane lobster"
This can't be legal like how is shrimp named with lobster and lobster named with shrimp

Mundane Lobster is a hell of a band name, though. EDM that uses samples of Jordan Peterson having his various meltdowns, maybe?
Sometimes it's less cool. The word for America is "Beautiful Country". Měiguó (Měi is beautiful guó is country).
France is "Country of laws". Although I think they didn't sit down and decide they should be complementary it's still less cool.

They did decide it should be complimentary I think. This was back in the imperial days when they wanted to cultivate good relations with foreign countries.
