Talk:naco
Foodstuff from "Kim Possible"[edit]
Appears to have limited use from the 2002 movie Kim Possible and resulting cult/catch phrase following.
Movie Title: Kim Possible (2002) as Rufus:
[Ron has poured nachos onto a tortilla]
- Kim : What are you doing?
- Ron : Taco meets nacho. I call it the "naco"!
- Kim : I call it "gross beyond reason."
- Rufus : Mmm! Naco!
Place name?[edit]
Googled in absence of "taco" or "nacho", "naco" yields assorted acronyms. It may also be a place name.--Dvortygirl 06:51, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Not NACO, but Naco, a pleace name in the Dominican Republic perhaps? --Connel MacKenzie 01:26, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I've spent more time than I care to admit going through google results and find no authoritative source citing "naco". --Stranger 03:20, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

- Wikipedia mentions it as "a fictional product from Kim Possible ... invented by Ron Stoppable". In that fiction series it is served at a restaurant called Bueno Nacho. I think it's a capitalised brand name. So needs a capital N, and would fail WT:FICTION. Equinox ◑ 22:03, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- In the first season Ron invents it as the "naco", but later the idea is picked up by Bueno Nacho and added to their menu making it a brand name. I wasn't sure which capitalization would be more correct. I fear you may be right about WT:FICTION though, I posted this here to see if anyone else could find a source for the word outside of the Kim Possible universe. 73.157.135.57 22:43, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- If this is kept, the etymology needs to state that it was coined by the writers of the relevant episode of Kim Possible, not by the fictional character Ron Stoppable. —Mahāgaja · talk 07:55, 16 May 2021 (UTC)

I can find more evidence for a taco made from naan instead of a tortilla. (e.g. [1]) Kiwima (talk) 21:56, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
