I once asked my dad why he gave me my name and he quoted this song...to make me tough. True story.

...I won’t post my real name here. The origin is from another country. Got in many fistfights over my name and dad was right. It made me tougher. Today, I wear it honorably and am pleased to no end when I meet someone from the countries of origin who know how to and do pronounce it with delight, as it takes them and me back home.
There is no sweeter word in all of a person’s native language than to hear one’s own name spoken by another with kindness.
Ok, I’ll post it. What the heck.
It’s Tonto Kowalski
...there, I said it
Alice?
Is that you?! 😎
