Tsunami...
I did once convince an ex gf that tsunamis were named after Japanese warlord "Tsu" whose "army" (hence "Tsu n'Army") perfected a method of rocking their war boats from side to side to create heavy wave action that resulted in sending a deadly wall of water towards their enemy on shore.

This was a long time ago, so I'm not going directly to hell I guess.
