Jimmy Matejek-Morris: Hello. My name is Jimmy Matajek-Morris. The first half of my last name, Matajek, comes from my father's family who lived in Poland. The second half, Morris, comes from my husband's family. When we got married in 2016, we decided to hyphenate our last name to represent the blending of our families. The result is a very long string of letters that can be a little overwhelming. But if you can remember the short A in mat and that J-E-K sounds like check, you'll be a pro by the time you get to Morris.
