Katherine,
East Lansing, MI.
My last name is very unique. It is a Croatian last name and my mother’s maiden name is Croatian as well. Whenever people ask me about it, it makes me happy because no matter how many times it is misspelled or mispronounced I realize that those aren’t things that matter. My last name is something special because it connects both sides of my family together through shared culture and it also reminds me where I come from.
