Names I go by

After I turned 15, less and less people have started calling me by my real name. I actually like it a lot. Partly because they’re affectionate nicks.

And mostly cause I still don’t get the logic behind MY name.

Funny thing about it is they’re (the names) either just a chopsueyed cutified version of my real name or something they thought would fit me better. I agree. So I broke them down and ended up with this list.

I AM:

“Glo Anne” - To my relatives and family friends, to older people and during formal occassions.

“Glo” - To my teammates, acquaintances, Starbucks Baristas.

“Glowie” - To my college barkada, To Ea, Kitchie and Twinkle and to my other close college friends.

“Geelow” - Also to some of my close college friends.

“Glowers” - To my Church Barkada and to my Small Group.

So there. Still, there really isn’t anything special about my name.

Just don’t wear it out.
