Help[Opinions] Re: I think I'm going to beat up the next person who says a kid will get beat up for their name.
in reply to a message by guru
I notice a lot of people who say that kids are going to get beaten up have really normal names. Weird.
Hey, Chelsea, were you ever crucified because your name is Chelsea?

Teased and border line bullied on some occasions, but nothing more than some other kids got. Like you (or someone else) said, these periods came and went and depending on how you reacted encouraged or discouraged it. Other kids with totally normal names got teased/bullied just as much.
I should clarify - when I say bullied I think they were pushing for a reaction. If I didn't give them what they wanted which was to maybe either fight, or submit (both would encourage it) then they would give up. The more you own your name the less it seems to be a problem. The bullies sense and feed off your own insecurities in my opinion.
