Are you fond of your first name?
| Ok. I understand 80% of everyone won't list their first name, and that's understandable. My first name . . . well problem is, its hardcore Mexican, and it's the most uncommon name ever since North West. And to add on that, no one can ever pronounce it right the first time, but in English it's pronounced "Fruuy-liinn", while in Spanish it's pronounced "Froyy-lawwn", so to avoid confusion, I just have everyone call me Froy, which even with one syllable, people still can't always pronounce right. And you don't know the struggle until you realize that the gas stations will never, ever have your name on their discount keychains (I kid). But even with all this, I don't really dislike my name, since I prefer unique names anyway. Though it might have been a bit too unique~ But now, what do you, oh silent MAL reader, think of your name bestowed onto you by your lovely parents? Is it something you're proud of, something you're ashamed of, something you got made fun of in elementary school for, or something you think has a nice ring to it? Is it a simple or complicated name, or a common or uncommon name? Tell the Protaku these things. |

| My last name has been the victim of a thousand puns and counting. I don't like the length of it, either. But I doubt I'll change it manually on my own accords in the future. I love my first name. It's special to me, and I think it's purty 2deep4u. |
 |
| Well, I have 4 names. The first is very generic and the last is, well, a last name. My middle names, however, I quite like. Partially because the fact that both starts with "F", one of them is what everybody calls me, and the other means "heaven" |
| I think that Mike Hunt has a nice ring to it. |
 |
| Tyler is a pretty common name and I don't really mind it. I will always prefer my nickname Bolby though, since it's more unique. |
| My mother chose my first name because she thought it was uncommon, but it's more common than all of her other ideas... Changing it would make my family angry, and it's not a big deal, so I won't. My second name was taken from my grandfather's second name, and it's common, but I don't want to change it. My last name is inoffensive, but I want to change it... the only thing holding me back is the number of things I've been credited with under my current name. Of course, if I ever change it, it has to be sooner rather than later, but maybe it's already too late for a smooth transition. |

| I like my first name, it's Michelle. However, I don't like my middle name. I would like to change but my middle name was my father's mother's first name. So, it wouldn't nice to change it. |

| Looks like you've given up on the tl;dr versions of your openings, Froy. OT: Yes, I like the name my parents bestowed upon me so many moons ago. |
| I like my name, it's simple and only semi common. I was also named after a relative so it's special in that way |
 |
| I like the nickname of it though |

But my threads go with detailing my own thoughts on the thread topic, and then giving everyone ideas on how to answer it. Sometimes I put a tl;dr when it's only like 4 sentences, or sometimes I need a tl;dr for the tl;dr. I'm weird like that haha. |

| I used to dislike it because every american mispronounces it but now I feel indifferent |
| I hate my middle and last name. My last name is said and almost spelled the same as a certain part of a woman, and my middle name is wayy to white for an Asian. |

| My last name is apparently famous in India. I don't dislike it or anything but I'm often mistaken as someone from India :T |
 |
| People tell me I look like a ricardo or a fernando. It pisses me off, but I feel my name suits me well. |
| I really don't mind my name. The only problem is when people here my name they assume that I'm Russian. |
| My name is ok, not the best. |
| Nearly everyone I know pronounces my name incorrectly. |
 |
| Hi my name is Mark. |
| Hi Mark. |
|

| it seems i'm neutral to my name. dont hate it but im not super proud of it. if i have to put a score would be 60% i like it. |
| Yea i sorta hate it but a lot of ppl think it's a pretty cool name. I mean it is pretty cool but it's friggen 10 letters long (i do have a nickname which is like 7 letters long) which annoys me a lot. I also hate my last name (15 letters lmfao) and ppl always annoy me always asking me to say my name for them :/ And the substitute teachers can never get it right when they take attendance. |

| My name's really common here in India. But I don't really mind it. I like my name. |
 |
| Fucking love my name |
| I'm pretty okay with my name. I just kinda wish my parents would revert our last name to its original Swedish spelling instead of the Americanized spelling my great grandparents adopted when they came over. |
    looket all them demons oh boy am i scared i better run ● ● ● |
| My name is ok I don't mind it, It's not a very common name so I like that there are not heaps of other people with the same name as me, but it's frustrating that nobody can ever pronounce my name properly. Quite a lot of people prefer to call me by my surname instead. |
| Nah I'm cool with Brandon. |
  |
| i like my name. it's not a common name here and many pronounce it incorrectly too for some reason, but i still like it. :> |
 |
| I feel nothing towards my name. Although it's pretty rare for people to actually call me by my name. Too many nicknames. ✘˵╹~╹˶✘ |
  |
| I like Marcin to be honest. Nothing wrong with it I think. |
 |
| I don't like either my first or my last name, because both contain the letter "ü", which has to be written as "ue" a lot of times. It's annoying. |
| I love it so much hnngh |
 |
Yeah it's cool, I'm named after him. |
| Christian sounds good. |
