What’s in a Name?

I have a name that’s unpronounceable to most Americans. In elementary school instead of listening to them mangle my name, I decided to choose a random English name to go by while in the States. Quite a lot of foreigners do this.
A year came and went, and now I was in a new class with new teachers and new classmates. I decided on a whim to choose a different name to go by that year. I’ve been doing it every time I’m in a new social circle since then. I can tell when and where I met someone by what they call me. Story credit: Reddit / MushroomMountain123
