Lexie

I’m Lexie, sometimes known as Alexandra. My middle name is a particularly well-kept secret of mine. My last name, Huber, is ugly-sounding and very German. My name often poses issues for me - the name that I go by is always misspelled, my last name is often mispronounced, and my middle name remains unspoken. I’m often told that I “don’t look like an Alexandra”, something that makes very little sense. If I don’t look like an Alexandra, who does? What face springs to mind when that name appears? I sometimes think that a certain name would go well with a certain face, but never that a name wouldn’t go with a face. Names are weird if you think about it - when you were born, your parents picked a sound that they wanted people to call you for your entire life.
