Sarah Murata

It's evidentally the twenty third most common name in the world. It means princess,and when I was little, you would know how happy I was whenmy mom told me that. I got over that soon enough that no one would make fun of me. I treasure my name, well I should shouldn't I? I'm, stuck with this name for the rest of my life, and of course there is the fact that my parents chose this name thinking Sarah would be the best name for me. I go with Sara in school because I think it looks more original than Sarah. Therefore my passport says Sarah, so I only use that spelling for official things. My last name is extremely common in Japan; Murata. Miraculously, there's isn't another pupil who shares my name in my grade, thank goodness. What I really don't like is when thry ask my name after I tell them my sister's name; Tiara. There arn't much Tiaras in the world, well, a lot less common than Sarah anyways. When i tell them my name all I get is a single "Oh.", "Wow, you're the seventh Sarah I've ever met", or the like. I think European names sound sophisticated, especially when you put the accent. I like the sound my name makes. Sarah, it's the color of a lemonade stand on a sunny summer afternoon, well that's what I think. Another funny thing is that I know a girl named Julia who who was either going to be named Sarah or Julia. Now, Julia is another common name, and believe it or not, I was about to be named Julia, too. My name might not seem particulary unique, cute, funny, not interesting, however I like being a Sarah Murata.
