My name is Monserrat Martinez Cabanillas.

Actually, there are many ways to write the name
Monserrat but according to me the original should be Montserrat. Montserrat is a feminine given name of Catalan origin. Its meaning is "serrated mountain", for the shape of the mountain of Montserrat. It comes from the Virgin of Montserrat, Marian invocation venerated in the Monastery of Montserrat. The name I always wanted to have was Sofia, since it makes me a very nice name for women. My feelings towards my name are beautiful, before I did not like my name at all that I even cried, I told my mom to change it, but today I like it a lot since most people tell me that it is a very nice and elegant name, and that raises my self-esteem a lot. The nicknames I would have would be Mave since it is a combination of the meaning of my name, by the "virgin Montserrat", something had to do with Mary but I don’t remember, then that is why I would start my nickname with “Ma" and the "ve" would be by "venerated" in the Monastery of Montserrat. My mom was the person who chose my name, that name was chosen because she used to have a friend who was called that and she liked that name very much so she decided to name me that way.
