Harmony Becker: Hi, my name is Harmony Becker. That is Harmony, like the word peace and harmony. I grew up a lot with my sister being told that she should have been named Melody and that my brother should have been named something like Baritone. Their names are Alan and Grace. But I think that I like my name. It's a word that most people who speak English know and it's also translatable to other languages more or less. So even if I have to say it in Spanish, I can just translate it to the Spanish version and then there you go. I've had some hiccups when I lived in Korea where my name with a Korean accent, depending on how you pronounce it, can also sound like the word for grandmother, halmeoni. But got over that pretty quickly by just taking out the R sound and then there were no problems.
