  1. I'm tired of spelling my #name for orders, slowly & carefully & with plenty of enunciation, & having ppl mispronounce it or uncertainly whisper it so I gotta pay extra attention. I'm considering coming up with a white person name, just for these food-ordering, etc, moments. When I was young, I rebelled. "LET THEM STRUGGLE, MY NAME IS MY #IDENTITY!" But now I'm old, crotchety, & just wanna quickly go home with my bag of food like some concrete jungle #cryptid.

    So... What should my #whitepeople name be (note, some of these are not originally western names but are easier for white ppl than my current name)?

    P. S. I still gotta have some ✨flair✨ so I'm not quite sure I could say "Jane Smith" with a straight face.

    P. P. S
    Multiple choices allowed. Thanks, love ya. ❤️
