Will I get picked on for my name?

Question

I'm moving schools and I'm starting at a new school on monday, in my junior year. My name is kinda unusual and at my last school I got picked on for it a little bit at the start of school.

My name is Azure Alexis Lloyd. I'm not too keen on it. Will the other kids pick on me for it? I'm scared enough as it is!

Answer 1

You have a very beautiful name....lots of people will be drawn to you BECAUSE of your cool name...

You can always choose to go by Alexis or Alex if you so choose...there is no law that says you HAVE to go by your first name..

Be proud of your name...your parents loved it or they wouldn't have given it you...tell your new friends your name with pride...smile...

and if people pick on you..know that they are just jealous...

Answer 2

I can't say for sure if you would get picked on, I would never make fun of  your name.  Even if someone does say something, so what.  Don't worry about it, it's just your name... I have a strange last name that people used to mispronounce all the time, but honestly i could care less if someone makes fun of it.

If it bothers you that much, why not go by your middle name instead?

Answer 3

If someone is going to be a jerk and make fun of your name the best thing that you can do is roll your eyes and say something like, " wow, that's mature." And leave it at that. Don't let them know that it bothers you. That will just make then keep on. Hopefully at your junior year of high school they will be more mature than name calling. Just rise above it and you should be fine.  

Answer 4

Lol I don't think so. Depends on where you will go. Just think as it like you have a special name that noone else has. I would rather have a name which is not common so no worries and be cool. ;D

Answer 5

I wouldn't be too scared its a beautiful name, especially the alexis addition. Never be scared about what other people think. i live in a town where everyone knows everybody. with 175 students in my high school theres only just ONE other person that expresses herself like i do, everyones prep and gangster wannabes, I'm rocker, and one of the three most popular kids there. Be courageous, never scared

Answer 6

naw,tht usually stops after like......6th grade

Answer 7

I think your name is lovely.  My name is "Taylor," and I'm a girl...when I was little people thought I was strange.  But you know what?  I just decided that it was MY name, and that I liked it a whole lot.  If other people don't like it, then they don't need to have that name, do they? :P

Your name is special.  If people tease you (which I doubt that they will), then ignore them.  I disagree with the person who told you to "roll your eyes" and say something back.  If you say anything, just tell people that bother you that you like your name.  Say it proudly.  And don't worry about dummies who think that teasing gets them anywhere in life - it doesn't ^.^

Have fun at your new school!
