To every name there's a deeper meaning, (Emachrise), is no exception. At first it may sounds like just a combination of letters, but every part of it reminds me of who I am and how I see myself. So please permit me to take you down the memory lane of how it all began.
When I was younger I had so much love for toys, not just any toy but electric once, though I couldn't afford any but my friends were rich so they had a whole lot of toys to play and to spare, but for me it wasn't all about playing with the toy i always wanted to know what makes the sound and the movement in it. Because of this I damage so many toys that wasn't even mine, but as time goes I found my self repairing back almost all the toys that I damage.

One day, during my primary school days, a topic was taught on introductory technology 'ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY' as the force that holds the universe together, it connect our devices, it power our lights, enable my toys movement and shape our world at large.
This what gave birth to the first three letters of my name, “EMA,” represent electromagnetic. This was to express my deepest feelings of how I’ve always been fascinated by science and technology.
Aside from my curiosity about science, for me, “electromagnetic” wasn't’ just a scientific term. It’ws a symbol of connection and power. Just like electromagnetic waves, I would always want to influence the world around me in ways that might not always be seen directly but can definitely be felt.
It also represents balance. Electromagnetic forces involve attraction and repulsion, push and pull. In the same way, my life is about finding harmony between struggles and successes, setbacks and growth.

The last six letter's, “CHRISE,” is rooted in my real name, Christopher.
Instead of spelling it the usual way, I shortened and reshaped it to give it a unique identity, something that feels personal but still recognizable.
“CHRISE” isn’t just about the name itself it represents me as an individual. It's personal stamp, the part of my nickname that grounds the more abstract meaning of “EMA” in something real and human.

It reminds me that even when I’m reaching for ideas that feel bigger than myself—like science, energy, and ambition—I’m still Christopher at the core, with my own story, strengths, and flaws. To me, it’s more than just a creative mash-up of words. It’s a blend of two worlds: my curiosity for the bigger forces of life (electromagnetic) and my personal identity (Christopher).
The name "Emachrise" isn’t just a label I use online it’s a reflection of how I see myself and what I want to become.
Every time I write Emachrise, I’m reminding myself of two things: the invisible energy and potential that surrounds me, and the personal responsibility to stay true to who I am.
It’s a balance between the scientific and the personal, the universal and the individual, the dreamer and the grounded self.
