26 Names To Use For Get A Different Name Day

February 13th was "Get A Different Name Day," a day when you can change your name and see how it fits.

My name, Deyanira, is a mouthful. It's okay--I admit it. I've grown to like it, love it even. But that's the thing it's been a journey. Nevertheless, there are the times when I'm at Starbucks and I automatically blurt out a different name, another name simply out of habit.

Why? Many reasons but, here are the top three:

1. Pronunciation, all wrong.

2. Incorrect spelling.

3. And this, just this. ALWAYS.

As if what I said was complete gibberish.

There are those who just wanna be adventurous and 'try on' on a name, just to see if it works. So, to them, kudos for being AMAZING.

Personal frustrations aside (which I'm sure y'all can relate to), here are some possible suggestions of incredible names along with the kick-ass ladies and/or characters they belong to.

Audrey

Keepin' it fun and classy.

Buffy

'Cause she SLAYS all day, everyday.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
