Christina Li: Hi, my name is Christina Li. I was named after my mom's co-worker, so not a very remarkable story there. But what I will say is that my first name is nine letters long and my last name is two letters long. And growing up, when I had to fill out those forms for tests, those standardized tests, I would always run out of room for my first name because first names aren't typically that long. And then the last name section was 15 letters long, and I just took up two of them. And so, anyway, I did not love the imbalance in my names growing up, but I'm growing to love it a lot. And it's really efficient for books now. And it's just like you have to fit two letters in the spine.
