I'm thankful of my father for named me "Maki(真希 in Kanji)". Maki is a common girl's name in my country and also it's easy to remember. 真 means "truth", and 希 means "hope". He named me with a hope that I can live on with hopefulness and always to be a sincere person. My parents divorced after I left my house at 18 years old. And he passed away last year. The name is only gift that I got from him. I love my name. So I want to say thank you to my father for named me.
