As changeable as a flowing river, Danube will undoubtedly manoeuvre the trials and tribulations of life with ease. Deriving from the Latin term danubius, Danube is said to mean “river” or “water.” You may recognize the title as that of the river that runs through Germany, flowing east all the way to the Black Sea, but it does make a rather mesmerizing given name.
