Emily Hughes: Hello, my name is Emily Hughes. My name is very simple. It's a very common name. When I was younger, I was really upset with my mom for naming me Emily. I'd rather have the name Emilia or something a lot more fancy, because there are a lot of Emily's in my class. But, my mom always told me she liked the name Emily, because it was a very literary sounding name. In a way, I think she predicted what I was gonna become or forced me into it, but that's my name, Emily Hughes.
