starbucks, names 

my actual legal and everyday name is a hebrew word and not in any way intuitive for english speakers, so at starbucks so far i've been using a generic "western" name that starts with the same letter and used to be a nickname of mine with friends 10 years ago

but it always felt a bit.... outdated; like, i'm no longer that person who had that nickname in 2012 and almost no one's called me that since then

and so today

i instead used the name "wolfe" and it: 1) worked i.e the cashier typed the name i said, and 2) made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside

so i guess i found my new starbucks name and possibly my new furcon name?????
