Prompt: What is the story behind your name?
My full given name is Wyatt Joseph Laiche. My first name, Wyatt, comes from the movie Tombstone, where an actor played a man whose lifestyle my father respected. This man's name was Wyatt Earp. He was a sheriff in Kansas, and a good man whose brothers were gunned down by cowboys from Mexico. My middle name, Joseph, is the first name of my dad's grandfather. He was a hardworking man who was dedicated to his family.
My last name, Laiche, is in fact very hard for most people to pronounce. Just for the record, it rhymes with fresh. It has its roots all over Europe, and it can be traced from France to Germany, and it can even be traced back to Scotland. My last name categorizes a group of great men, and it used to belong to a man who owned a large percentage of the land in Louisiana. I love my name, and it doesn't fit anyone else but me.
