“Carrie? Hello?”
“Keer-ee-eh,” I said, emphasizing the middle vowel. Normally, I don’t care if people mispronounce my name, unusual as it is, but I was annoyed at the distraction.
“Like the song?”
Turning, I leveled a glare at my interrupter. Not very good of me, customer-service wise, but I was not feeling myself. “Yes, I was named after the pop song,” I said. “Exactly.”
“Why would your mom do that?”
Because when you’re eighteen and pregnant and unmarried and homeless and that song comes on the radio, it holds a lot of spiritual and emotional meaning to your immature and overwhelmed little self. But I didn’t say that. Instead I shrugged. “Lots of parents name their kids after songs.”
