Kooli (Kool)
School. The two contiguous education street-names of Kooli and Gümnaasiumi were fused (1939-1989) under the name Gümnaasiumi ja Kooli during the Soviet occupation, both streets referring to the Gustav Adolfi Gümnaasium, which Kivi lists under its 1972 name of Nikolai Gümnaasium.
Köömne (Köömen)
Caraway, cumin.
Koore (Koor)
Cream. Listed in TT although not, actually, in Tallinn. Be this as it may, we keep it for the entertainment value of which it has, for those of goldfish intellects, well, not much actually: formerly known as Kirsi. And in the present case, given its tree-related neighbors, it means bark (other translations include skin or peel). But still not in Tallinn.
