The K in My Name
My name is Nikolle Kowalsky. My mother gave me this name after being a big of Nicole Kidman years ago, but she wanted to do something different with the name. She added, two "I", and my father add a "K" because of his last name "Kowalsky". They did the same to my brother. His name is Lukas, following the same style. The tradition of adding a "K” to names didn't stop with my parents; others in the family did that too.
I really enjoy my name because I love how different and unique the spelling is and that few people have the same name. Another fact that I like is that the "K" in my name is connected ed with my whole family making more special for me. When I have my own children, I want to continue with this tradition and use a K in their names. I believe that this is a form to keep our family ties strong and maintain some connection through the generations.
When I think about my name, I believe that is a very strong name with a lot of personality in both languages, English and Portuguese. I don't think my name sounds soft when it's said out loud. That's why my parents and family are used to calling me "Niki" when the conversation isn't so serious.
Your Mom and Dad are creative for giving you this name. A beautiful name.
