True

I went to school with the following people:

A girl named Peppi.
A girl named April Wren.
A girl named Kiki.
A girl named Bobbi Jack.

I went to college with a girl who changed her name while she was a teenager to W i l m a j o y Regina HopeAnn K. She had a plainer name before that, but she and her mother fiddled with her name and came up with that tongue-twister. The funniest thing was that years after college, I located her email address and exchanged a few emails. She and her husband (formerly “Simeon S.”) had changed their names to Joy and John S. Apparently, their previous names were too difficult for people to remember.
