What’s my name?
My name is Ryan DeLuca, My first name according to behind the name means “Little King” and comes from the Irish man named “O’Rian”. My first name is the same as a famous DeadPool actor Ryan Reynolds who also happens to be a really good actor. My last name is where most of my history comes from mostly because your last name is your family name and most data is recorded with a your family name. My last name DeLuca comes from the Roman empire but only the Italy part of the Roman Empire. My last name is very much Italian but on the 21st century my last name is most common in the United States. My last name has a lot of heritage, and has a few famous people attached to it such as, Fred DeLuca who is the co-founder of subway and Gianni DeLuca who is a Italian comic book artist and illustrator.
Some nicknames that I am called by a select few are, ryry, ry, reon, there I one nick name that a couple of my friends call me by and it is, Sparkle. It is a name that I originally didn’t like at first but then began to embrace it, it has a story behind it trust me. The story behind this nick name started when two of my friends and I went up to camp in Milo Maine for an ATV trip. My two friends drive sporty go fast four-wheelers and I drive Utility Polaris sportsman which is very comfortable on trial by the way. My Utility Polaris sportsman is black with silver steel wheels, the black color has a sort of sparkle to it. When my friends sister came out of the camp to look at the four-wheelers she took a liking towards mine and proceeded to say it was very sparkly and that is where the nick name Sparkle started. What sealed the deal with this nick name was when I just purchased new wheels for my truck and finished getting the front body panels on my truck repainted that was when my nick name became permanent. The new paint on my hood and side fenders also had a sparkle to it as well as my new wheels, but the wheels weren’t a sparkle it was more of a shine.
