What is in a name?

Härligt att vara i skog och natur dagtid, men på natten skulle jag aldrig våga.

I doubt my mom knew when she rejected my dad's idea to officially name me Steffen Kurt Otto Guenzel. That is my name. Both middle names are passed on from my grand-dads. She called the names old-fashioned. And I am glad for it. Anyway, I created a couple of years ago my acronym: SKOG. Be assured, I did not know what SKOG stands for but I thought that a little Scandinavian touch would fit my almost blond hair and blue eyes. Then one day I entered the acronym in the search engine at www.urbandictionary.com Who knew that it would produce ten definitions?

1. The active verb for skogging.

skogging is a skateboarding technique requiring both legs to pedal one's skateboard. the word is a mixture of skateboarding and jogging, thus...skogging!

I will refrain from listing the other nine explanations since they are a bit embarrassing and instead marvel in the line below the beautiful image that includes the word skog. So for now and ever, I think of it as the acronym that my mom did not think I should have to suffer from in my later life. A very wise woman indeed.
