I have altogether 4 names in total.
A first name, middle name, last name.
Chinese name and a dialect name.
Never mind about the above sentences. I’m known mostly to people as Melissa, Mel and another of my nickname starting with “M” also but I won’t say what!! Hahas. Only close kins I know can address me in that way.
What’s with this post and its title you may wonder…
It is because.. I am always quite fed up when people mispronounce my name… Is it that hard…..? Me-li-ssa. Just 3 syllables!
Usually it’s the older folks. Males especially! Oh gosh……. each time I hear my name being mispronounced.. I just feel like LOL-ing. And I won’t correct them.. cos you know.. I am nice. And me being nice, I just do not want to hurt their egos.
Merrr-li-za
Mer-ni-sa
Mer-li-sha
Wrong… Wrong… Wrong…. If you ain’t sure, you can address me as Mel, alrights?
