My name is anything but common.
So it's easy to find me.

Lolol. I can't imagine googling "story" and getting your name anywhere in the first 100 pages.

Haha no it's my last name. My last name is already extremely rare and when combined with my first name (In quotes ex. "Story *******") the only thing that comes up is me.

I figure that anybody who has enough of either:
-Money
or
-Probable cause + legal authority

can find you and monitor you no matter what you do to 'stay private'. Anonymity is an illusion - it's only real as long as nobody cares who you are.

My first name is pretty rare. xD
My last name is a common name in Spain and Mexico.
Even though I'm Puerto Rican.

That's cool I didn't know that. One of my friends is half Puerto Rican and his mom teaches Spanish at our school.

Also, my first name is pretty rare as a name.... but very common as a word:p:
