She Was Ashamed Of Her Name But When She Shared It, She Never Dreamed THIS Would Happen!

Some people are chameleons at heart. They like to blend. However, it’s hard to do that when you are actually a peacock, or someone who is born with something so distinctive that it makes them pop from the crowd.

Take Cassandra Naud, a 22-year-old professional dancer who was born with a large birthmark covered with hair located under her left eye. She could have had the birthmark removed, but she learned to accept it. It gave her strength, and now her beauty shines from within.

Some people, however, are not born with something physically dissimilar about them. Sometimes their difference is bestowed upon them, by their own parents, when they decide to name them something other than Mason, Emma, Liam, Sophia, or the handful of the other most popular baby names in the U.S.

Recently, “Humans of New York” — a website that takes photos of New Yorkers and posts a quote by them about themselves below their portrait — posted a picture of a teenage girl with the name Beyoncé. She had the same name as the pop music icon.

She explains why having this kind of name embarrasses her, but when her explanation was posted on Facebook, she never expected this to happen — and believe me, it’s pretty amazing — and funny!

This is the photo and caption Humans of New York posted with Beyoncé’s picture:

Sometimes I hate my name because it always draws attention to me, and I’m not a very social person. My family moved this year from Pennsylvania. I was so scared the first day of school that someone would notice me. I wouldn’t even adjust my seat because I thought it would make a noise. One time I really had to cough, but I held it in. When the teacher started calling attendance, I got really nervous, because every time people learn my name is Beyoncé, somebody starts singing ‘Single Ladies.’ And some did, of course. But the second day of school wasn’t too bad. Because everyone knew my name.

And this is how Facebook responded:
