My great grandmother loved the Archie Comic Books. I remember her reading them to me right before dinner. I would sit on her floral pattern couch with the plastic on it just full of bounce as she would pull a new comic out of its sleeve. This was our special moment that only we shared. We would spend about 30 mins laughing at Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper, Veronica Lodge, Jughead Jones, and the rest of the gang. This memory I forever cherish!
In 2012 I started my music journey. I didn't have a stage name and honestly wasn't even sure that music was a path I wanted to take serious. Fast forward to September of that same year when I was informed my Great grandmother had passed. My entire soul was crushed. If there was anybody in this world who I knew had my back she was that person. I had just released my first underground song (it has long been deleted from the interwebs) under the name Unspoken. Everyone told me that wasn't a good name for me and that I should pick something that truly made me feel good to represent. I was sitting at home reading one of the old Archie comics left behind and that's when it hit me.....
Veronica Cheryl-Blossom Cooper. (Yea I know its a whole government name lol)
WHY did I pick this you may ask?
I truly believe I represent all 3 love interest in Archie's life so I mashed the names together!
Veronica Lodge
Veronica is an attractive girl who is has a strong interest fashion. Known for being a city girl who lives kind of on the fast side of the track. Very popular and able to charm her way into anyone's heart. Lets not she loves to shop!
Cheryl-Blossom
Cheryl is what we may call a sex-symbol. From the way she talks to the way she walks she is every mans fantasy and every girls worst nightmare. Someday I wake up and I feel unstoppable and that's why I relate to her character. She vanished from the Archie comics without a word after a few years. Theory was she was deemed to sexual for a children's comic.
Betty Cooper
Betty is portrayed as a smart, kind, talented, tomboyish, and beautiful girl. Your true girl next door type. Such innocence!
...And there you have it! The story behind my name!
Thanks for sharing this great post with us. I knew your name came from the comics, but it was interesting to learn how you relate to each character. Now that I know all of this, the name suits you even more!
