I'm afraid it is just the name. But it has
the most awesome statue of Mevlana, which on the photo on Wikipedia looks like a wizard (he's actually wearing a turban, so it's just an illusion), and *shoots laser beams from its right hand at night!!!*.

Of course, if it turns out to be an acceptable word then you've effectively won the game. But let's hope that it doesn't come to that .

Okay, but you can't complain about "Blair". It's french slang for "Nose". It's even in the Wiktionary.
After all, you also allowed other french terms, as well as "tums" and "swag".
