Maurine’s Introduction

My name is Maurine, my mom decided to be different and add “ine” instead of “een” which is spelled Maureen in English but since my background is Haitian, “Maurine” is French including my last name “Dubuisson”. People sometimes have a hard time pronouncing my name when they first meet me its either they say, “Marie” or “Morine”. Then others would have jokes and say “oh Maurine like the Marines.” I personally love my name and the way its spelt because I find the other spelling of my name “Maureen” looks weird to me. People would say my name sounds like an old lady name too. I’m glad not too many people have the same exact spelling as me but I did meet a few. My name brings the best out of me.
