How "mary Nagy" Became "maggie"

I don't know how it happened. I'll never understand. When I got married and changed my name I was in wonderland! My maiden name was ''Gasiewicz''. Say that one ten times fast! So when I became ''Nagy'' I thought...some peace at last! It seems an easy name... I'm simply ''Mary Nagy''. But somehow through the years... they've turned me into ''Maggie''. I have to laugh about it. It happens all the time. I guess it is just natural when two names seem to rhyme. I get it in my daily life... ''Hello, How are you Maggie? '' I just chuckle to myself and say ''I'm Mary Nagy''. I didn't think I'd get that mistake here on the net. But, yep, It's happening again... ''Hi, I'm Maggie. Have we met? ''
