When you're name is Meghan, you know all of the struggles, that come along with that:
1. When you meet someone with your name, the first question is always, "How to you spell it?"
This is a recording. With an "h", which is the right way OBVIOUSLY.
2. You gotten some interesting nicknames over the years: Meg, Meggy, Meg-han, or in my case, Malpin.
That's what you get when you have a blendable first and last name.
3. You are confused by any spelling other than yours, but Meagan, Meghann, Meghyn really puzzle you. Why all the extra letters?
WHY.
4. Usually, you are asked, "Is that with an h?"
Shout out to the people at Starbucks that recognize me and don't ask anymore.
5. You have an immediate bond with with other Meghans. The bond with Megans just isn't the same.
Love you all.
6. Whenever they say Meghan Trainor's name on the radio, you perk up. EVERY. TIME.
"My name is No". Actually my name is Meghan but thanks.
7. People somehow find a way to mispronounce your name. Most common would be making the "e" sound more like an "a".
Ugh please don't.
8. Finding things in the souvenir shop as a kid was always hit or miss. But they always had "Megan".
All you wanted was something with your name spelled correctly. Is it that much to ask.
9. Recently discovered struggle: Google wants to correct your name to "Megan".
NO I DID NOT MEAN "MEGAN".
10. But hey, it's all worth it because you can say that your name in Irish means "pearl".
Worth it? We'll go with yes.
