Names
Filmi (Film)
Film, cinema, movies. Although, given its oleaginous neighbors (see Nafta), perhaps that nice insulating layer of fossil fuel that oil tankers deposit on the waters to keep the ocean warm? But no, boring: after local film storage warehouse. Previously Jalgpalli (1933) and Palli (1934-1959) after neighboring sportsfield.
Filtri (Filter)
Filter. Named after nearby water treatment plant. Given the cemeteries nearby (see Toonela), one wonders where they obtained their activated charcoal...
Fišmeistri (Fišmeister)
Street no longer exists, but listed as an example of some of the spellings that Tallinn streetnames can undergo: Vismestere (1515), Fischmeistri, Fišmeistri, Vissmeistri, wiskmeister (1732), Fischmeister, Vischmeyster, Висмейстри & Фишмейстре / Фишмейстеръ (Vismeystri / Fishmeystre). Writing and written records can do only pale justice to the infinite variety of sounds the ear can hear and mouth and memory can reproduce, a drop in the ocean of language history. See Rannamõisa & Vismeistri.
Forelli (Forell)
Trout. Could be one of the Salmonids: meriforell, sea trout, Salmo trutta morpha trutta, or jõeforell (lit. river trout) aka hõrnas, brown trout, S. t. m. fario (these two are actually the same species, but whereas the former is anadromic, or spends most of its life the sea and returns to the river to spawn, the latter is essentially freshwater); or the variously named harjus, harjakas, (both from hari:harja, crest, due to its large dorsal fin), ärn, õrn (these two names derived from the above hõrnas) or hõbeforell (lit. silver trout), grayling, Thymallus thymallus; or vikerforell: the steelhead, rainbow or ocean trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, renamed from Richardson’s S. gairdneri. For those tempted by logo-erotic nomenclature, the mykiss part of the name bears no relation to ichthyandric osculation, but comes from the fish’s Kamchatkan name ‘mykizha’, original spelling unsure, my Kamchatkan’s a little rusty. Named after local trout farm.
Fulfordi-tagune torn (0) 
Commonly used but incorrect name of Wulfardi-tagune torn.
Gaasi (Gaas)
Gas. The word ‘gas’ is believed to have been created by Dutch scientist Jan Baptist van Helmont (1579-1644) as his mother-tongue pronunciation (/χɑs/ or /ɣɑs/) of Anc. Greek χάος – chaos, thus named, apparently, because of his surprise that gas was so disorganized: “halitum illum, Gas vocavi, non longe à Chao”: (I called that vapor Gas, not far removed from Chaos). Anagram of Saagi. Part of a loose construction-materials group. See Paneeli.
