My Name

I blame cable for my name , seeing as though my parents came across Cheyenne after watching Renegade . I have yet to figure out why they liked it so much . I really do not like it , even though I am rarely ever called by the full thing . Ever since I can remember I have always been called Cheye. The rest of my name ventures off and only reappears when I do something wrong, until I start school of course. I had to get used to responding to Cheyenne, which is so strange to me . I do not feel like people are talking to me when they call the name nor do I think of myself when I say my full name outloud . I do not think it suits me . When I think of the name Cheyenne I think of someone uptight and prim ; I am nothing like this at all . If I had my way I would select and delete the last few letters of my name . I am not a Cheyenne , I am a Cheye .

  8. I like how you talked about your name and how you really don't like it. Many people don't have the courage to say that they don't like their name, but you did. Good job!

  14. I really like how when you reading this out loud, you said with confidence. I like how you said your not a Cheyenne, your a Cheye. It really show how you feel about your name.
