In Spanish class, we get Spanish names and can choose what we’d like to be called from a list. I’m Francisca (or Paca) because it’s similar to Francesca, my online name.

    We chose from a list where students with earlier birth dates got to choose first. Perhaps a consequence of small school district combined with less commonly-learned language, but after the 3rd year with the same teacher, we tended to revert to our real names, just pronounced with an accent.
