What nickname do you give for at,@ symbol in your language?

Iu wara nub

In dutch it's like polish "apestaart" " monkey's tail".

@ is "Ensaïmada".

No cal dir que "ensaïmada" és català. De fet, dins ambients "seriosos", es diu també "arrova".

Per si no ho sabeu, una "ensaïmada" és un pastís "un gâteau, a cake" típic de Mallorca, que té forma espiral.

That's an interesting, funny and nice topic. Well, someone already posted how we call it in Spanish, I wonder why we call it that. I really enjoyed and had a laugh at the names they it has in Greek and Polish. But the English name is a bit boring, is it a nickname which sounds a little funnier in English?
