The Story Behind My Name

 The story Behind My Name

I have always thought that my name is different, it's hard to pronounce even for my family and friends, but at the same time I need to admit that I love that my name is not thar common. I realized that I like mu name when I was in Kindergarten. I asked my mother why she decided to name me Brienz, and she immediately responded and blame my father. To be honest, I always thought that they decided my name while they were drunk, But I was wrong. She explained to me that he chose that name because of the color of my eyes. Back in Switzerland there is a province with the same name an there is also a bank and a lake. The deep blue color of that lake reminds them of the color of my eyes, so that was the real reason.

When I thin about it, I feel happy because is original even if my parents are not from Switzerland, they took their time to chose a meaningful name for me, and it feels like a gesture of love.
