First, I just wanna say that names are incredibly rich signals that whether we realize it or not, every time we hear someone's name, we are forming impressions about a likely age, gender, ethnicity, even. Socioeconomic status or geography, that's all part of the impression that comes with a name. So it's something that you carry around, like little social microclimate that shapes the way people respond to you.
We're only alive for so long. So my future really is, as cheesy as it may seem, is to, um, try to let people know, Hey, you're not alone.
