Names

I call myself the Singer-Nurse, an RnB Supahstar. Haha
My friends call me JC, Juan, Yatot, J-Deeg, J, Jhayz :)

My relatives call me Adu/Ado, Abdul, Juancito :)

My parents call me Plong ;)

Now I wonder how God calls me? ;-P

...So many names but one identity. Funny how people that are close to you give their share of baptizing you with another name aside from what is in the national statistics. Names that go with their personal remembrance of you. A name that expands its meaning throughout life, representing you and according to how they perceive you. Names that are sometimes only good to hear from the people who first called you that way, Because it has become a special tag of your relationship with that/those person/s.

See how couples call each other?.. baby, honey, sweetie and other cheesy hubby names that they can ever think of and sometimes spell it the hard, complex way just to get the UNIQUENESS stamp, (e.g., Bhaebeeiy for Baby, Hohnnee for Honey, and so on) ya I know i've been there. hahahaha.
It's like a personal signature brand of clothing..original, high-standard and quality, beautiful, and extra special.


That particular name's representation to the person will remain forever , even if the bonds between them break. Looking back, they'll still remember the reason why they gave that name to that someone, even if at your present, it already went away..a long time ago...

Just like with foes for life, frenemies and other pain in our asses...
We brand them with disgusting, evil and all the worst names we, again, could ever think of. Like its meanings are already the screaming dull words itself and no need to expound more.
And then wheels turn, the world conspires with peace and everything went nice,
foes and frenemies finally became close friends or if not became casual friends., Still, dating back to war times, moments are remembered.. but tagging them the worst way would be funny now even if it has the fugliest explanation why was it spelled/sounded the way it was.

Well.. nothing much here. just want to share.. I just realized that names are forever, not just the legal ones, but also those encrypted, embossed, engraved and all attachment vocabularies applied in the hearts and minds of people that are close, and even those that aren't so close to you. Even if we say "Let's forget about it", see it's actually more like of "Let's just not bring it up again"

So...
This is JC, known with a lot of nick names, but forever be declared a music lover, art fan, simple, happy creature, loving person, full of dreams, and occasionally crazy! ;)

And You? What's Your Name? :)
