Her name is Armani, just like the Italian fashion label. But she reckons it’s not right for her, adding: “I do not match it. I do not like the way it’s spelt or how I say it. I do not actually wish to say my identify [because of] how embarrassing and cheesy it’s.”

The girl shared: “If I did want to change my name I have no idea what to. My personality is quite shy and quiet at first but then I’m loud when people really get to know me. I’m one of the first people you notice in a room but because of my name people don’t really forget me.”
Some Redditors advised her to go for it and alter her identify, whereas others began pondering up new names for her. One individual posted: “I think I’m a bit older than you, but I am in a similar situation. I don’t like my name at all; it’s trendy and just doesn’t suit me.”
Another mentioned: “As someone who can empathise, I’d say just change it. It’s your name, and your life. If you want to make things easier for family and friends – and you are in no way obliged to, you could pick a name that is similar or starts with the same letter as your current name. But it’s also ok if you want to go with something completely different.”
Another chimed in: “You can still change your name even if they don’t approve. You don’t need their permission or anything. My mum’s cousin changed her name from Lisa, which she always hated, to Tristan when she turned 18. My mum said a lot of the family, including my mum, were resistant at first, but Tristan persisted and people have pretty much forgotten she ever was called anything else.”
Another social media person asserted: “You have every right to change it if you dislike it. It is yours after all. If you’re not old enough to do it yet you could still decide what you want and start using it to introduce yourself. This gives you time to try out different things until you find one that feels more you.”
