A chosen name is a title/name that is preferred by a person, while not being a legal name. Chosen names are often used for nicknames, but have become popular with trans and non-binary individuals who feel their legal name does not suit their identity.

"My name is Robert, but I prefer to go by Bob, it's my Chosen name."
"Alrighty then, Bob."

Words you can keep

50 Cent (who the original 50 cent was and why the rapper chose that name)

The original 50 Cent (not the rapper) was from fort green in america he was known in every borough as the most vicious stick up kid around during the late 80's he wasn't really known for his "hustling" or anything like that; he was simply that dude who, when you saw him, you knew someone was about to come off their shit, be it cash, jewels or drugs. He died a violent death as a young man, but in his short reign, he definatly made his mark.

these words are not my own they are from 50x50 50 cent's autobiography now i've seen a lot of people saying that 50 Cent isn't a real gangsta and that he's just a wanksta but the fact is he was a gangsta and once you are a gangsta you stay gangsta forever, he was hustlin when he was 12 years old. people say oh he's only famous for being shot 9 times well thats bullshit he's famous because a lot of people like his music i personally like his music and i don't hear a new 50 track on the radio then go omg he's been shot 9 times im gonna go and buy his CD i can understand if you don't like his music but i dont understand is you saying that he's only famous for being shot. As far as im concerned 50 Cent is an original gangsta and im not linkin that because there isn't a proper definition of it up yet :)

50 Cent (who the original 50 cent was and why the rapper chose that name)

50 Cent: I've been shot 9 times

Idiot: Your music is crap but i'll buy your album because you got shot 9 times.

Purple Patch

To describe coming into something good, coming into good luck and or good times.

Like walking over small green hills in the countryside then coming across a purple patch of flowers, thus it being unique and out of the ordinary.

I hit a real purple patch.

The other day this good thing happened unexpectedly then I was lucky with this, it was unique, I hit a real purple patch.

Back when I lived in upstate new york

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.

Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
