I found someone in our user database with the name “Deekshita Anusri”. I then imagined the poor soul at the border who had to read that name in front of the person named so.

I’d love to hear some stories about times something like this actually happened.

I can only imagine their last name. And what did the parents call her by if they got mad ? Something like … „Secret angel Patterson, come here right now“.
