As I mentioned earlier, my name is Laurlyn. What I didn't think about telling you last night was the names of two of my friends from school. My best friend in high school was Misha and another beginning in kindergarten was Tharanya Xan (middle name).
Tharanya hated her name and swore she would legally change it when she turned 18, but she never did. I felt sorry for her at times because other kids would tease her by calling her terantula, and she couldn't even go by her middle name.
