named

i was named coralie. i thought for a long time that i was named after someone who helped look after mum when she was pregnant with me. turns out it was just the name of some pretty girl that my dad spied .. my sister was only two years old when i was born & couldn't say my full name so she called me corri (with no 'e' thank you) & it stuck.

it's a pretty bad name when it comes to giving it to people over the phone. when i give my full name they think i'm saying 'carolyn', 'carol', 'caroline', 'carlie', 'kylie', none of which (i think) sound anything like coralie. when i give my short name they think i'm saying 'lorrie', 'carrie', 'connie', 'kylie' (again), all sort of things but corri.

when it comes to spelling my name people rarely get that right the first five times either. aside from all that, i really like my name. it's different, unusual & pretty.
