Tara, I love your name, too, now even more, knowing it's your birth name. Although while living in Paris I was told my last name sounded "suspiciously Jewish," according to 23AndMe, I'm not at all, (except by marriage to my hubby of the Levy tribe). But no one would suspect me of changing my name, who would choose pick my name? Ha ha! Anyway, really great read, Tara!

Thank you! I love my name about as much as I hate anti-Semitism

What a great article - funny, insightful and evocative. Makes one think. And not to make any presumptions about anyone or anything. A much needed reminder :)

I like your name too, but I have to admit that I thought you had changed it. Or, since you’re sorta famous, that it might be a “stage” name or a nom de plume. More fool me...🫢
