Harrison? Kingston? Robert?
On any given day this Jamaican had a different name. I do not know why. The day this picture was taken his name was Harrison. The next day when I spotted him and approached him, he told me his name was Kingston. I always approach people, everyone has a tale to tell. The next day he was Robert.
I said what’s the story with the different names, spill the beans.
He just gave me this wolf-like grin.
Wasn’t gonna tell me, no matter what. Mum was the word.
This is an interesting phenomenon
in Jamaica. It seems there is a percentage of men who abandoned their birth name and claim another
that more suits their personality.
So this was just one of several
Jamaicans that I have encountered
who possessed a colorful name.
Harrison or Kingston or Robert was selling bracelets and necklaces
made from colorful beads strung on fishing line, that screamed Jamaica.
Everything was for sale. Yes everything. Bargain and negotiate for the best prices. I actually purchased the very necklace he is sporting in this photo. Gave it
to my niece. Gotta pass all this
paraphernalia on, gift, and
spread the love.
Instill some one love around this world of ours.

@super-irie, In my opinion this Trend is like Reversal Of Traditional Name Timeline and by that i mean, random names will not derive us but the best version of ourselves today will become our Name. Stay blessed brother.
Loool...I can remember that thing happened to me once before, I had two different names for two days lol, no explanation it just happened...
Nice adventures man
Of all the people on steem...
If I had to guess only one individual
who had dual identities it would have to be you.
Peace Out Brother

Ha ha ha I remember this guy. See him, call him by what you thought was his name, just to get a response saying,
“Kingston? Who’s Kingston? My names Harrison, nice to meet you my friend!”
Haha wait a minute ... we met you yesterday, boss !!

It's something strange, a curiosity that I'm going to investigate, maybe it's like a superstition to see how his luck changes in sales.
He has probably been given so many names by others he doesn't know which to use LOL. BNot good for business if you don't have a specified name. Well at least you bought some thing from Kingston Robert Harrison ( Hmm maybe they combine and make a his full name hehehe)
Great educated guess.
Could well be.
