My name

My name is Jeffrey Smith. It means the peace of god. Which is interesting... Because I am probably the most non peaceful and most unrelaxed person you will ever meet. That is beside the point though... I was given my name because my father wanted me named after him. At first he did not want my name to be Jeffrey. He wanted something more interesting, but stuck with Jeffrey... I wish he did not though.  My name is like ramen noodles... It is normal, simple, and  a lot of people dislike it. Anyways, I just think it is interesting that he was so against the name at first and then ended up liking it. Besides all of that as well, my name is a cricket. You hear it  everywhere and it gets annoying. It is not annoying at times because you can just shorten it to Jeff and have only four letters to write down on paper. And truthfully, and has a kind of nice sound to it. So I guess I can not say that I dislike my name. It has its ups and downs. These are just a few things about my name though... There is lot more to it than I know... And I would love to find out what someday!
