What is in a name? For most of us, our names are closely tied to our identities. How the world identifies us, and perhaps more importantly, how we identify ourselves. But for many of us in the diaspora, the names given to us are not necessarily intuitive. We navigate through the world having to balancing the different versions of our names along with the different identities we personify.
This episode is an effort to unpack our complicated relationships with our names. We also speak with some our friends and family to find out about their dynamics with their names.
This episode is the first in our mini-series exploring how we balance our identities, identities influenced by the different cultures and societies we associate with as third culture kids.
