My Name

My name, brought from Britain, the best, yet boring and barely spelled correct, Brittany. There isn't much of a backstory, it is just my name. I have never met another with my name, well at least spelled my way.

MY name is mine. Happening before I was born, there was going to be another Brittany, I didn't know it then, but I would not have been okay with that. There being another Brittany, in the same family? No ! That would be like having two totally different objects, such as a pen and a leaf, being called the same exact thing. Nobody would ever know what somebody was trying to talk about if this was the case.

My name. A whole 8 letters to write multiple times a day, is a lot. For being a longer name, like that one hallway that you just hate walking down, there is a shortcut. I have had many nicknames in my life. Brit, Breh, Bre, Brit Britt, and Queen B. I personally don't know why people call me Bre, as for it has no association with my name. It sounds that it should go with a Breanna, not a Brittany. Also, Breh. I have no idea how or even why this is a nickname for me, as for it is as weird as some people, but it is what I am called.

My name, brought from Britain, is Brittany.

  1. I find how many nicknames you have interesting, as I only have two that only specific people use.

  5. I like the way you use the simile for talking about your long name and the one hallway you hate walking down.

  6. I liked how you compared having two people in the family named Brittany to calling a pen and a leaf the same thing; it highlights just how vastly different you would be, and how it doesn't really make much sense.
