My Name-DoHyun Park

Do you like your name?? I used to hate my name when I was young. My name is not unique but not a common name either. 'DoHyun' is a boy's name in Korea. People think that I'm a boy before they even see me. I got stressed out because of my name. When I was young, I really wanted to change my name to my favorite cartoon character's name. So I always begged my mom to change my name to 'MiNa' which was my favorite cartoon character's name. It's kind of embarrassing because 'MiNa' is like a fairy tale name in Korea. My friends also teased my name. They said I'm a boy. For my nickname, my friends call me 'Do Park'. 'Do Park' means gambling in Korean. I got hurt because My name was boy's name. So one day, I asked my parents, who named my name, why they named me such way. My father told me that he named it. He named my name as DoHyun because DoHyun means grow brightly in Chinese. Now I really love my name because I think DoHyun is a perfect name for me.
