In what language stands the name as discrimination ? In my language (Romanian) the word "gimp" has no meaning 
whatsoever. The only possible association is with the GNU Image Manipulation Program – and this only for 
those who work with it or at least ever heard about it.

I wonder if in Italian or French or German etc. languages this word has any meaning except for the GIMP 
program.
