While no other name for the symbol has secured wide use in English, various other languages have given names or nicknames to @. Many of these relate to the shape of the sign: a selection includes aapstert (Afrikaans, ‘monkey tail’), kukac (Hungarian, ‘worm’ or ‘maggot’), and malwen (Welsh, ‘snail’), although at is becoming more common as a universal name.
