I have realized that as another year rolls in so does another year of new people, and new people bring another round of me answering the same questions. If you haven't seen my name on this article by now you should go take a quick look because when you come back this title will make much more sense to you. In the end, I love my name and wouldn't change it for the world, seriously when I get married I'm hyphenating it (sorry future hubby).
My last name makes me unique and I don't need to use any family tree websites to find my family because I am 99.9% sure that if you have this last name we're most likely related.
1. Is that your real last name?
This is probably the most common question I answer. I get it my last name is different but if I was going to fake my last name I would've picked a normal one like Jones or Smith.
2. Hey, your last name is a dessert!
I already knew that but thanks, Captain Obvious.
3. Addie Cake face!
Oh, this is a clever one. Who knew my name was a synonym for makeup. Do I like makeup? Yes. Do I wear it all the time? No. Are you realizing you've called me this before and feel humiliated? I hope so because you sure made me feel that way.
4. Do you like cake? You kind of have to because it's your name.
Yes, I do like cake and not just because it's my last name.
5. That's such a cool last name!
I sort of knew this already but thanks anyways.
6. You should open up a bakery!
Just because Cake is my last name it doesn't mean i can actually bake one, so no.
7. Addie with the no cake
It was funny the first time but after that I'm annoyed. Double points for you using my last name as another term for ass and making me self-conscious about my body at the same time!
8. Hey, "Cake by the Ocean" should be your anthem!
Well, one, no, I hate that song and two, plot twist, that song isn't about food.
9. Addie Cake sounds like Patty Cake, I'm gonna call you that now.
Please just don't.
10. You must get these questions all the time.
Yes, I do, and now I can add your name to the list of others who tell me this too.
