Four nicknames only me.

Nicknames are cool, we all have that names that we gave ourself or someone gave us because the way we do things or our physique or anything that makes us unique, I have a friend that have International as his nickname everybody called him that even his parents Know about the names this makes him popular in school and his home town.

But nicknames was not my thing, I don't like nicknames I'm okay answering Blessing but some people still like to call me some names which don't I like and the name don't last, when I was a kid my siblings and my dad friends use to called me Ifiako ntokokpo meaning my legs is small and tiny I hate this names like mad,
this man when ever he comes the first thing he'll say is were is Ifiako when my brothers and sisters here about this they will all laugh and this was not okay with me cause the name was so bad and I'll not go outside , that's why I always Lock myself inside when the man comes to our house, I don't let him seeing me.
