Side note: How does saying you look like a [name] work? Are there predetermined or stereotyped looks for certain names?

I don't really know how it works, honestly, but I think people probably associate the name Vanessa with me because it is often a Hispanic name (and the people who told me that were also Hispanic.) I have also been told that I look like a Bella, a Gabby, a Jordan, or a Selena.
I think that there are stereotyped looks for certain names though. I think people tend to think of vivacious or sometimes cutesy names for me.

I am Spanish and dont see you like Vanessa. More like Luca or Laura.

Names are very personal, just choose the one you do like.

I like your name. When I first saw you here, I thought of the Suzanne Vega song :)
