Felix means happy (or lucky), and is the origin of the word felicity. It took me a while to realize this, so I thought I would note it. Is it obvious for all native English speakers?
Not obvious to me. I did know the meaning of Felix, but it’s deep enough in the unused drawers of my memory that I might never have made the connection without someone pointing it out.

It was obvious to me, I’m not a native English speaker. Anyone knowing a bit of Latin is probably going to catch it.
I am a native English speaker, but, yeah, without the Latin I probably wouldn’t have noticed.
Not obvious to me. I honestly would never have made the connection.
Obvious to me. Native speaker.
