porkkana
kurpitsa
You could write "Porcana" and "Curpizza", sounds the same.
Cheers

carrot - mrkva,
pumpkin - tekvica
to be honest, these do not sound like the candidates for the character name..., I would opt for Basque (Azenario makes a beautiful name)

| Macedonian, cute diminutive forms | Jan 19, 2007 |
The diminutive forms of these two words in Macedonian are realy cute, at least to me.
Here they are:
carrot = dim. morkovche (морковче) from "morkov (морков)"
pumpkin = dim. tikvichka (тиквичка) from "tikva (tikva)".
... anyway, if you wanted to use these words to name a child in Macedonian it would be natural to use the diminutive form.
pozdrav,
