I've been using my desktop in the english language for years and even
still found 'home' to be a bit off.

I've noticed a lot of people mention personal folder and I must say I
quite like that. Even in our dutch language, it's called "Persoonlijke
Map" which is also personal folder. Whereas we do also have 'thuis'
meaning home, the warm comforting feeling the english have with 'home'.
But I don't store my files in my home. I suppose using 'home' came more
from the very old '/home' from the old unix world.

Making it shorter though, just Personal I do think might be a bad idea,
Personal Folder is somewhat longer, but just works better imo.
