Mina Bolognese

So me and my sister just pulled this really funny prank on our mum. We were talking about me changing my surname and started spitballing ideas, the more we did this the uglier the names got and sooner or later made no sense what so ever, because that's just how we operate. When it eventually came down to "Mina Bolognese"* we couldn't stop laughing for quite a while, I mean who would seriously.. ? Anyway, as it was so funny to us, a challenge was born - to make someone believe I really changed my name to that. We thought, who's the most gullible person we know and my sister goes "Mum. C'mon we have to do this", and so we did. We both texted her and told her the strange news (- my sister acting upset about it for it to sound more credible). I even changed my name on facebook for a while. I got a text from my mum later saying stuff like "I don't understand, you don't even like meat", but after a while she started to get more upset because she's now accepted it and goes "Well I hope you understand that your passport isn't valid anymore then!" (- because I'm not in my home country right now this would be a big deal) At this point I started to feel like I didn't want to play with her nerves anymore so I told her the truth, feeling a bit bad about the whole thing (yet still laughing). Like, why would I change my name to Bolognese?

*(the original name suggestion was even spaghetti bolognese, but not even mum would have bought that)

Usually I'm so bad at pranks, seriously, I can't lie to people. But my sister, she can get really.. determined. Which is funny. She's awesome.  

And I love my mum, she's amazing! Aaand she's used to us being like this so it's okay.

I can't help but to wonder though, who is this Mina Bolognese and what would she be like?
