So, do you like your first name? Ever thought about changing it....or have you changed it? Do you believe that the name affects you (personality or destiny). A lot of people I know believe it does.
Names have power. That's why the first thing slavers did was to take our traditional names from us. Think about it - a brutha named "Lion Killer" is prolly going to break out and break those chains one day.
I like my First name.
It means "little dark one"
It has 11 way's to be spelled and a few pronunciations.
For a while I legally didn't have one registered and didn't know it.
I was a ten pounder.
My mother passed out and didn't get my name on my birth certificate.
Hmmm....my name. Well, it doesn't really suits me, lol. The meaning of it. It means "with fair/blonde hair"....and I've became used that almost every time when I say my name the first question is "What kind of name is this?" or "What does it mean?". And to have a lot of people remembering me by a lot of other names, only my name not. Seriously, I've known a girl for two months, and one time she called me "Lorina". Also Laura, Lauren, Lavinia, Olivia...I have an entire list of names people end up calling me)
Through, to be fair, my name has a quite funny history....it was decided long before I was even born. My father and a friend -they've studied together Roman Empire history decided one time at a party (have no idea if it was one of those uni parties with lots of beers, lol) that if either one of them will have a child, he will name her (if the child is a girl)- Flavia, and if the child is a boy- Flavius. Two children ended up with this names))))))
