About my English name
|
During senior high school, I gave myself a name through looking up a dictionary. I was so delighted when I found nobody had the same name,since I could not imagine that many people answer when somebody say hi to you on the way. So I introduced myself to my new colleagues telling them to call me Zorana. Yes, my name was (I'm intending giving myself a new name) Zorana. Is it really weired and forgettable? Most friends almost couldn't pronouce it at the first time even my foreign colleague. They thought it may be a French name or has a very meaning, but it's just definitely a name. And then I've been using the name till I realized that it made some trouble when I communicated with others. I decided to change my name which has some description like me, then i found a helpful website thinkbabynames.com. There are the most name and their the most complete meanings. According to my request, first, it must be easy to be remembered. Second, it had better be as rare as possible, and few people use it at least. At last, i selected four from among thousands of names. they're Amaris( the meaning of "promised by God"), Hedy(the meaning of "delightful, sweet, my echo"), Karina(the meaning of "beloved"), Olina(the meaning of "joyful"). I like all of them so that it's too difficult to choose the only one. Which do you think is the best?
I call him Kevin, he's my nephew.

- Zorana, Zo, sth like from the black
Amaris, Amani, sounds like a material girl
Hedy, like from the Greek, and I heard this name too often
Karina is okay, cos there's a name called Katrina, so nice pronounciation.
Olina, so so
