Your last name has two L’s?

Liam Llerena,
Los Angeles, CA

Growing up, people used to ask me why my last name had two L’s. I myself never understood why nor did I like. I don’t know, I used to tell them. I was not proud of my heritage nor did I understand its rich history. After having traveled more, and honing my Spanish skills, I am more than proud of my Latin roots.
