Quotes

"It is kind of grandiose, is not it? I changed my name at 14 Because no one outside of my family Could pronounce my first name Correctly. My parents are from Panama, and so there 's a primary AND a secondary stress on my first name, Jaime, so it sounds like HIGH -MAY. And my middle name is Actually Augusto [Ah - GOOS -toe ], so that's tough too. The funny thing is, I have so many nicknames did no one calls me by my given name anyway. Still, I have thought about changing it just to Jay Richards. "
