My mum was always a fan of unusual names. I used to love love my name. Until I had a teacher who only called me Dynasty and I never got why, until I did a little research online. It was a popular tv show in the 80s when I was born. I have no clue whether my mum watched it or not though. My name is a huge part of who I am it ensures that no-one ever forgets me, I stand out just enough without people standing there wondering exactly what my mum was on when she named me!
