I gave my name as “Name” today for my lunch order…Yep. But then I remembered my real name, so here goes:
Katie
Not Katherine. Not Katelyn. Not Greg.
No Middle Name
My mom knew at my birth that a middle name was unnecessary, because I’d never get in trouble. Either that or she couldn’t top the middle name, “Ashley” … which she gave to my older brother.
Gish
Like fish, but with a “g”, but pluralized quite unlike fish. You wouldn’t say, “There sure are a lot of Gish at this super bowl party!” That’s absurd. We don’t like super bowl parties.
