September 18th In class writing

My name is Selene and come from Greece. It means Goddes of the moon in greek. I’m from Argentina so it is not a common name there. My parents chose it primarily because they say that it is an original name and also they like it of course. Actually and never feel embarrassed of my name either here or in my country. In my own country, people don’t know how to write it, but it is not a big deal. The only problem in the USA is that people pronounce it different than in Spanish, but to be honest I never think about which is the exact pronunciation since it is in greek.

The only time that I changed my name was in Starbucks because they always write it wrong, but when my coffee was ready and they start shouting my false name I did not realize that it was my coffee, so I never do that again.
