"Josephine" is a name my English pen-pal, Alex, and her sister, Julie, gave to me 7 years ago when I went to England as my form 5 graduation trip. I named myself "Joe" when I was writing to my pen-pal in England. I got my current English name during one of our conversations. "Joe" is short for "Joseph", it is rare and normally used as a boy's name, so my "Joe" became "Jo", which is also short for "Joseph" (male's name), and also for "Joan", "Joanna" or "Josephine" (female's name), just like my pen-pals name, "Alex" for Alexandra (female's name) and Alexander (male's name). They chose "Josephine" for me as this name suits their impression of me. Since then, I've been using this name when I meet with new friends.
"Hi, I'm Josephine."
I will try to post new updates A.S.A.P. Thanks for reading.
