bookofmirrors real name?
A. Krista Lynn McCormick
B. K'La Albertini
C. Krista Lynn Fleming
D. all of the above, at one time or another
Answer: D
My parents named me Krista Lynn Fleming, which is the name on my birth certificate, my high school diploma, and my diploma from U of I. (1968-1992)
I got married to my first husband in 1992, and took his name, which made my Krista Lynn McCormick. This is the name on that marriage license, and my practical nursing certification. (1992-1995)
I went back to my maiden name after the divorce. (1995-2003) When I metblckwngdorcl, I kept getting mixed up with waterfall_sh (even though she spells her name wrong). She tried to go by her craft name, but she was already well-known in the community, so that really didn't work. I happened to be writing down my initials one day, and noticed they made a cool name. I was pretty much all about change when I moved down here, so I started going by K'La. (2001-present) I made it legal in February of 2003.
A couple of notes on the name thing...
Because I was adopted, I always kinda wondered what my birth parent(s) would have named me. My biological father was never really in the picture, and I learned from my biological mother that she didn't really think about names, 'cause she never wanted to get that attached to me. She said that, if she had thought of it, she probably would have named me Star. Which is a pretty fucking cool name (especially since her last name was Wood). However, as I was growing up, everyone and their brother used to call me Kathy(Cathy). Don't ask me why. It doesn't sound anything like Krista. Even in Spanish class, she gave me the name Catalina instead of Cristina, even when there were no other Cath- or Kris- derivatives in the class. So, I had always been convinced that Nano had intended to name me Cathy, and that people had just picked up on that. She *did* tell me that her best friend back then was named Cathy, but I think that's stretching it a bit to make that significant.
