Remember the times when we were in primary school and we were teased and being called names? Then, we would blame our parents for giving us such peculiar names. The truth is our names are specially chosen for us and they are perfectly fine, pretty names. Kids are just creative creatures. They can make your name rhyme with almost everything in the world!!
I once named myself over some pop idol...and I find myself really, really stupid for doing that. I now realised that my birth name is the second best thing that my parents had ever given me (the first would be my birth, of coz), and I'm just so proud of it.
So, to those out there who were or still are constant victims of name callings, try to appreciate your name given at birth...it is a luxury that some could not have. And to those who are adopting an English name, please choose a proper one so you will be my target for name calling.
