I used to catch hell at school for my name. Though now that I’m an adult, I take pride in it.

My problem was that as a kid, I was the only one in the school with that name [it’s much more common these days].

When someone called out my name there was no plausible deniability that whoever was calling me could be ignored as though it might be someone else with the same name.
