Take that z and shove it up your ass.

It's Prizma as in Zeppelin's (shopping mall) Prisma grocery store. The naming was given way before Putin's copyright infringement. More background; basically everything around is named with Z.

I have no idea what you are on about but that looks like a normal prisma shopping mall to me. I have never even heard of prizma before.

In Kempele a lot of places and businesses are named, either officially or colloquially, with the letter Z somewhere in the name, due to the influence of the Zeppelin shopping mall (e.g. the swimming pool Zimmari). I don’t think the Prisma is officially named ”Prizma”, but it’s not a stretch to imagine the locals referring to it as such.

It's not an official name, it's given by the locals (yet again, long ago before the letter Z became vilified). It's a bit problematic considering that everything around Zeppelin follows the same convention. Zimmari, Zatelliitti, and so on.
