Luisa
In english my name means “renowned warrior” in portuquese it means “guerreira gloriosa” people used to call me Lulu when I was little now they call me Lu,my name does have a special meaning because I was named after my great-grandmother she died before I was born.
The good thing is that my name never got me in trouble,people never made fun of me,my last name tho its kind funny “Leite” in US doesn’t mean nothing but in brazil it means “Milk” its fine i don’t care anymore.Even if I could change my name or last name I wouldn't because that’s who I am,it would be awkward to be called a different name,when my family or friends call me luisa sometimes it seems that they are mad at me,so I prefer to be called by my nickname Lu.
My whole name is “Luisa Avila De Oliveira L.” my favorite part is Avila,i love my nickname more than i love my name because when they call me Lu its seems different in a good way for me,but I am actually happy that my mom chose this name,i wouldn’t be the same person if I had another name,imagine a world without names we would be nothing,everybody the same that would be so bad,so yes i think we all should be grateful for our names,depending on what they are of course.
