30 Day Blog Challenge- Day 1: Your Blog's Name

I searched on Pinterest for some 30 day blog challenges! To jumpstart my blog again.

Day 1: Your Blog’s Name

My blog name is joannedkim. There’s a lot of Joanne Kim(s) out there. But not many with a middle name that starts with the letter “d.” The “D” stands for Dayoung, my Korean name given at birth by my grandparents.

But enough about that, I actually wanted to go more depth about my Instagram username “joann.eco.” Unfortunately, it doesn’t translate well into other parts of cyberspace with a period in the middle.. But I wanted my name to include something that was clearly related to the environment. After some brainstorming, I included the “eco” and use the last letter of my first name to make “joann.eco.” I couldn’t make it joanne.co or it wouldn’t be obvious that it was environment-related. Consequently, people that don’t know me too well write my name as “Joann.”

I had this notion that blog posts needed to be long. There’s beauty in brevity. I’m even thinking about how adding images is a hurdle. But those are all just obstacles and I just need to get started.
