Day 20: The meaning behind your blog name.
What is my blog name anyway? Haha. Let me look....
Oh yea... "Jenki" is a nic-name I acquired in high school.
If you go back to 1985 you will notice that "Jennifer" was the second or third most popular name that year for girls. It was number 1 in 1984 and number 4 in 1986. So, if you can imagine, there were a lot of Jennifer's in my school. There were about 4 or 5 of us in my immediate circle of friends, so we got our conversations mixed up a lot. We started going by nic-names. Since my middle name is "Nicole" my friends wanted to go off that, but there was another "Jennifer Nicole" also, so I became "Jennifer Nikki" which was eventually shortened to "Jenki."
After I left high school, I kept it for user-name reasons, but no one calls me that in real life anymore. I'm just "Jen" now.
