It's MIKNEIAH!

Wow! I can't believe I was born with a VERY SHORT name (I'm just being ironic! =>)! Not to mention, it is the WORLD'S MOST COMMON name (still being ironic)! It only goes like this - MIKNEIAH REYFA DENOMAN HARDER (Mikneiah Reyfa D. Harder for short). Do you believe me now?

Even though given the title of being the world's most common name, still, many (when I say many, it means A LOT!) people always misspells and mispronounce my name! Many would spell my it as Mikneih, Mikneah, Mikniah, Mikleah, Mikleaih, Mikliah, Mikeneiah, Mekneiah, Mekniah, and Mineah! Gosh! And don't let me get started when I tell you about how people pronounce my name! There is one time when I was in grade 3 and my teacher called me as Mikneyayah. Even my cousin would call me Mikiniyah. And worst of all, an announcer in the taekwondo City Meet called me MICKY RUFFA!!! I mean, what is wrong with my name? Don't you know my name is from a bible dictionary? And it even means "God's possession!" Well, I guess there is nothing wrong with my name. It's just your eyes. 

I can endure if someone will call me by my first name, even if it's wrong. But if you call me in my I-dont-know-why-I-so-dislike second name, oh, I may not like you anymore. Hahaha! I'm just kidding! But I'm telling you that I just don't want to be called by my second name, even if it is the combination of my beloved father's and mother's name, REYne and FAith. 

So just call me MIKNEIAH! XD
