How my fursona, Jev, got his name
10 years ago
I'm going to share a kinda funny story about how I came up with the name Jev for my fursona. The name comes from a story my mum told me a while ago.
Many years ago when I was still a baby, I was on holiday with my parents in Penzance, Cornwall in the summer of 1992. They knew an old man down there, and this is how the conversation went when he asked what my name was:
Old man: "What's his name?"
My mum: "Adam."
Old man: "Jevon?"
My mum: "No, Adam."
Old man: "Oh, Jevon!"
The poor old guy must have misheard my name as I think Jevon is a Cornish name.
When I decided to create my fursona and think of a name, I remembered the story my mum told me and I decided to use the name Jevon, with Jev as a shortened version which he will most commonly be known as.
And that's how Jev was born. :P
