My name is Eneida

My name was given to me by my mother. It is the name of a Greek Island. My name reminds me of my mom and grandma, because they decided on my name. Actually, it’s my mom’s name and it was given to her by my grandma because my grandma used to read novels in her free time. She read a book named “La Eneida” and she liked it because it was about pirates in a Greek Island. Sometimes I don’t like my name because people don’t know how to pronounce it. But I still like it because I think it’s an original and not common name. My name reminds me of my mom and grandma and reminds me that I can do everything even if hard times exist in my life.
