Quote from The Sun:
Prince Harry's new job title has left people in Japan in stitches as the acronym is slang for 'penis'.

The Duke of Sussex bagged the role of chief impact officer - often shortened to 'chimpo' in the US - at a Silicon Valley startup last month.

Harry, 36, said he wanted to "create impact" after being named as part of the leadership team with BetterUp Inc - a coaching and mental health firm in the US valued at £1.25bn.

Brits thought his new role sounded a little odd, but brushed it off as just a funny word.

But many in Japan had a right laugh due to its phallic meaning in the country.

Social media users highlighted that 'chimpo' in Japanese is the socially appropriate way to refer to the penis.
The article also says: In Japanese, the sound of the word 'Sussex' sounds like "having sexual activity".
