Introduce Yourself : Can A Name Have Potential? by CinemaShots

When anyone usually introduces one another, they are most often stating only their first name or their first and last name, and in whatever order they feel fit or necessary. Well, for me, it is most often my first name, but growing up with a last name like, Jackson, I have been followed up with many nicknames. Nicknames like Ms. LJ/LJ (old friends), Ms. Jackson (directing for the camera class), or Lauren of the Jacksons (theater class). By the way, my name is Lauren Jackson. I get a job working in a casual fast paced restaurant and my boss ends up nicknaming me, Piper, because of the character from the tv show, orange is the new black. Everyone on staff ends up calling me Piper or Pippas, and today it still stands. Now, all of my nicknames might sound cute or silly, but go well with distinguishing who I am, and no one knows my middle name. Whenever people ask, and say my full name, they kind of laugh and compliment on how well my name just flows. Lauren Christina Jackson. Some have said it has potential. Some say it sounds famous already. Some say it could be for some famous author. Who knows. It is only a name.
