Shortened version of my full name

My last name is really long and often kind of unwieldy, if I call someone on the phone, it’s guaranteed they ask to spell it, so I drop the suffix and that makes things easier. That, and it’s my handle/name used for writing elsewhere.

It was based on the meanings of my first and middle names, but in the interest of moving away from name-based usernames, I changed it to the phrase a carnival worker used to get my attention in 2015. I used it as a tumblr url for several years after that lol

It's my name

the lore isn't that deep buuuuuuut reading everyone's responses reminded me that, around the time i was 25, i read something about trolls and online communities, and how the best spaces are the ones where people feel accountable to each other. i think anonymity plays a big influence in that, so i use my real name online because i want to normalize doing so, and also because i want to reduce the distinctions between online eth and irl eth. what you see is what you get
