"What is in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet." - William Shakespeare
For 45 YEARS, I carried the name Fabiana. A name that never felt... fitting. It was beautiful nonetheless but seemed... tainted. Like its origin wasn't empowered by a truly positive meaning. I had always known that I was named after my father's mother, my grandmother. However, that is all I knew. So I let it be.
Over the 2021 Thanksgiving Holiday, I decided to ask mi mamita (my mother) to share the story of how she and my father met. A story I never heard before. The truth that unfolded was something I will never forget!! And I guarantee you won't either. The epically inspiring story that inspired me to legally change my name. An act of self love inspired by true heroism.
