Charloft: What's in a Name? (Thursday)
My name is Fyre Anne Williams. You'd think the Anne and Williams is normal enough, but Fyre? There's a funny story behind that one actually. When my mom went into labor she kind of left her cig burning (yeah, she smoked while she was pregnant with me, nice mom right? Really healthy for me) and while she was at the hospital, in labor, the house caught fire. Let's just say it burned down or pretty much might as well have. Apparently it was rebuilt after my birthing.
Anyway, my mom and dad were pissed that I was the cause of them losing thier precious home and having to spend more money they apparently didn't have. Hence, they named me Fyre with a 'y' so that I would constantly remember what I had done. Like it was my fault I wanted out? Maybe she shouldn't have been smoking. Everyone asks if it's a nickname because who would name their kid this right? Well it isn't. I used to hate my name, but now I embrace it, because it fits me. Suits me. I think my boyfriend would slaughter me if I ever tried to change it....
