Please get my name right

When I was a student at a university in Wales, there was a Japanese girl in our classroom. One day I took the train to London. The Japanese girl in our department was on the train too. As we knew each other by face I said hello and sat down next to her. I asked her name and I heard her saying 'Chinko'. I said ç¾±²Ô°ì´Ç means 'zinc' in Turkish and talked about that matter and other things for a very long time. At the end of the journey, she told me that her name was not 'Chinko' but 'Chiziko' and chinko was not a very nice word in Japanese. I didn't dare to ask her what it meant. When I came back to Aberystwyth, I asked my Japanese friend Hirotake what it was. He told me that it was a word for the male 'private part'. Then I realized what a big blunder I made! Sorry, Chiziko.
