I always wished i had a more exciting first name

I have a very traditional biblical name as some of you may know and i was sad that it was entirely un-nick-namable but I think it suits me and my personality now. My parents almost named me Kirsten and I sometimes wonder if I would be different if they had gone with that… and I LOVE when little old southern ladies say my first name and middle name together especially if they preface it with a Miss. my last name is actually too unique, hyphenated, and ridiculously long and was embarrassing to me for most of my life but I’ve found peace with that too and wouldn’t change it for anything 🫶

So fucking rad.

I used to hate my name. My mother wanted to name me Mary (after the Virgin Mary) of all things but I ended up with the name “Thuweiba” because my dad ended up naming me. Growing up in a predominately white town it was hard to honor it and I hated my name. I even went to visit Somalia for the first time and my family memebers kept asking my dad why I was given an “American” name. This is far from American lol. My dad’s a history and religion nerd so my name’s pretty archaic. I fucking love it now tho. It’s so darn cool and I’ve never met anyone else with it! ✨ Adds to my individuality complex 😼

having too many names

i have five names because my mom is an english teacher and she had to cram in every name and every meaning she loved. but it's funny because i still have just one middle name. i legally have two first names and not in a normal way like "anne marie" or "mary jane" or "mary anne" it's grace olivia which does not roll off the tongue in the same way :/ but i do like both of them. i definitely do not introduce myself as "grace olivia" because i would feel cringe doing that because it SOUNDS like i'm telling people my middle name for no reason! so i treat olivia like a middle name irl. my middle name is danielle and i have two last names which is normal. having a lot of names is funny though. it is inconvenient on forms and sometimes annoying to explain but still funny. do you have a long name? do you have six names? seven? that would be awesome.
