The Name They Keep Getting Wrong
Your name comes from your family's language or history, and at your school almost nobody says it right. Teachers pause before the register. Kids give up halfway and call you something shorter, or a nickname you never asked for. One supply teacher just said, "I'll call you something easier." Part of you wants to correct them every single time. Part of you is tired, and it feels easier to let people call you the wrong thing than to make a fuss. Lately you've started introducing yourself with the easy version automatically — before anyone even gets a chance to try the real one.
