Literally, "water man" is correct. But I would translate it a bit more loosely as "water bearer".

Most, if not all, names of zodiac signs in Dutchare are literal translations from Latin. But while most people understand that Leo means Lion, how many know Cancer is Latin for crab?

No worries. I was hesitant to post both comments, knowing they might be misinterpreted.

bc they haven't had as terrible of a racist past as the US

You do know the Holocaust happened in Europe right?

Other than that, I do agree with you. Europe is still very racist but we like to think we're not. Just because it's less talked about, doesn't mean it's not there.
