    I'll go first. I named myself after Jester Hairston's character on the hit television show "Amen".

    Out of respect to Mr. Hairston, I changed the spelling of "Rolly" to "Rollie".
    Ohhhh no wonder why it's pronounced differently than it's spelled!

    My username is the first letter of my first name spelled phonetically.

    Just my name y'all:-) I have been a writer, blogger and activist/advocate for Blk people for years so I just use my name but if I were to have a user name it would be #Tagi (my childhood nickname that was given to me by my oldest sister and one that my close family and friends call me). Tagi is also a name that I use in my activism and advocacy. So feel free to call me Tagi since y'all my family! #TagiSpeaks

    My Aunt Mary had named me Gwyn & didn't want the normal spelling. My Dad's middle name is Glynn & I named my son after him, one "n".
    My grandmother totally took over. "No, her name is Glynder, half her Father & half mine"! "Her nickname can be Gwyn"!
    Shivers is my ex husband's last name. It's easier for most people to pronounce Gwyn than Glynder.
