I Changed My Name

Nickname
[edit]In Lithuania, my mother brought an abandoned female kitten into our house (she kept meowing ouside for hours, until my mother couldn't stand it any longer). We named her Dunya, a common female name in rural Russia. A variation of that name is Dusya, or Dunka or Duska for short. When we moved to America, we had to leave our cat with my aunt, and I invented Dusik (a male transformation of Duska) to use as my internet nickname.
On several occasions, people have pointed out that Dusik is also a Korean name (although probably pronounced differently). I have certainly seen evidence of Dusiks on the Internet from other countries. Also, Samohyl Jan pointed out that dusík is the Czech word for nitrogen.
