My Funny Name
August 25, 2006
Do you love your name?
Unfortunately, my name starts with Roda and ends with May.
so it’s Roda May. Believe me, i was born in November one cold Tuesday night. People always think I was born in May. I presume I was conceived on a steamy February night ( could be a pre-valentine affair- a baby making month for most couples).
Now, back to the question; Do you love your name? If you ask me that then i tell you that I DIDN’T in all caps. Why? Because,
One: They changed my name- it ’sposed to be Princess Green ( i don’t like the Princess name either, though..but life was brutal and i have Princess as my nick back at home)
Second, Roda is a combo of my mom and dad’s name ( eeewwestttt!)
Third point: People always say RODA sounds funny. and to complement with them, I always reply “Yeah, RODA.. it’s soooo BAYOT! (gay)” (like RODArick Paulate!). and then they reply “EXACTLY!”
I hated it when somebody calls my name completely with no breaks. It’s like honking a very loud horn into my ears.
there’s one time, a guy called me RODA MAY and i was soo pissed that I couldn’t help myself but ask him “why do you have to call my name completely?” you see, It doesn’t sound good and I don’t like it, so stop calling me that.
then he replied “Why? It sounds good to me. It’s the most beautiful name I know. It suits you just right. It’s so beautiful, just like you.
No, don’t you ever think that i blushed when that guy said those to me. I just smiled. When he said my name was beautiful just like me, i didn’t think he was associating it with how i look. I know it was something else. That hit me. I think he was right. There’s something in a name that makes a person beautiful no matter how ugly it sounds like.
PS. that guy’s name is Jaan. I think he’s got one beautiful name, too. How about you?
