My name was always questioned by adults and by teachers. I was constantly asked what my real name was. Not many believed that Molly was my real name. It was often used as a nickname for Mary or Maureen. I was often told that it was weird that Molly was my real name. I was also the only Molly in my school from K-college. I used to hate my name because of this. I know how it feels for something to think you have a weird name.
I hope I am a calibrator in school. I am in many different classrooms all day long, and I try to learn as many names as I can. Many students have names that are only 1 letter or one sound different from another student. I often ask those students to say their names for me and I try my best to pronounce them correctly when I am in their room. Many have such beautiful and unique names, I don't ever want them to think they have a "weird" name.
