The History of My Name

Posted By Junelle on June 6th, 2007 | 775 views

I kind of like the idea “The Name Project” by Sarah. Renee winning the first batch has challenged me.

On my biography post, I haven’t written there the story about my name, so here it is:

My father’s name is Andres Caravana, Junior. So as a junior his nickname became “Jun.” Though he has other nicks; like Odong and Chief, he is most commonly called JUN.

My mother is Nelida Castañeda Malaga – Caravana. Her nickname is “Nelly.”

So, I guess now you know how they made my name. They combined their names = “Junelle”

Though, they could have thought of a better one to make it sound a girl’s name, I am satisfied with this unique name I have.

Since, it sounds like a boy’s name; it has brought me to a lot of an awkward situation. The unforgettable one was my college enrollment:

Registrar: Why didn’t you enroll your ROTC?

Me: Ma’am, I am a female. (Babae po ako…)

Registrar: Oh! Okay sorry, I didn’t notice, I just looked at your name.

Now, I have come to appreciate my unique name, because in creating an email or username, I find it easy to use my own name.
