Naseem Hrab: Hello, my name is Naseem Hrab. My first name is Farsi. It means spring breeze. My last name is Ukrainian. It means horn beam tree. As it turns out, I don't quite pronounce my first name or my last name correctly. To say my first name correctly, you should say it exactly the way my mom says it. Here she is.
Speaker 2: Naseem.
Naseem Hrab: So, it's Naseem, not N-u-seem, like I'm always saying. Even my two year old nephew does a better job than me.
Speaker 3: Naseem.
Naseem Hrab: As for my last name, my father would say Harab. His brother would say Rab. Their cousin would say Harob. Talk about complicated. At the end of the day, you can just call me Naseem Hrab.
In case you were wondering, my middle name is Anne.
