Names and change

[kajarainbow]

In the end, "Sarah" wasn't my favorite name. I picked it mostly to be "safe". So I've gone from "sarahmonster" to kajarainbow. Now I am Kaja. A name from a good chunk of my ancestry, a pretty name, a distinctive name, a name that I will see referring to me more often than to others, and above all a name with special meaning to me.

Rainbows. Why rainbows? Riots of colors, vibrant, queer associations don't bother me, dressing like a rainbow is eccentricity enjoyed by my eyes, sentient rainbows are creatures of whimsy and play (I made that last one up and hopefully you all will eventually see what I made it up for).

Why not monsters? kajamonster already taken on AIM, monsters also marker of both the past and of darker (if often cute) parts of me already explored quite enough. I still like monsters and I still have those parts, but I'm exploring other parts of me now.

The wheel of change turns. This name change has more behind it than I will reveal in public.

And, remember, all of you have fun. ^.^

I go for beauty on my eyes, and it translates into beauty on the ears.

Yay for names with special meaning to you :)
I'm curious about pronounciation, is it like 'Kaia'?

This is gonna take some getting used to. No more Monstah?

And Special K is already taken. It's hard to come up with good nicknames you know.

Good for you!

Man, EVERYONE is changing their name lately. I went back to Goji and Daniel(though I'm considering a different last name), my friend Vee changed her LJ name, Yomatsuri/Polyechaphalic/Holophote changes xer name every other month(wink wink nudge nudge)...

Bizarre.
