In the latest trend to attract social media, people search their own names on Urban Dictionary and post both positive and negative “definitions”.
For those new to Urban Dictionary, this is an online glossary originally created to explain slang terms.
In its 22-year history, the site has evolved to identify political terms, video games, and the latest trending human names.

This is how the Urban Dictionary name trend began and how to find your own definition.
The Urban dictionary name trend started when Instagram user @bymayuuu posted the prompt “Show us your name in Urban Dictionary” and his query quickly went viral.
