What is the most important effect of the descriptions in paragraph 4 in the story why couldn't I have been named Ashley?

Paragraph:The first time I actually became aware of my name was on the first day of first
grade. I went to school loaded with all my school supplies and excited to see all of my
old kindergarten friends. I couldn’t wait to see who my new teacher was. As I walked
into the classroom, all my friends pushed up to me, cooing my name: “Imma, Imma I
missed you so much.” The teacher walked in with the attendance sheet. She told everyone
to quiet down so she could call roll. Before she started, she said something I thought
would have never applied to me. She said, “Before I call roll, I apologize if I
mispronounce anyone’s name” with a very apologetic look on her face. She looked down
at the attendance sheet, paused for a minute, and then looked up with an extremely
puzzled look on her face. I remember thinking that there was probably some weird name
before mine; although, my name was always the first name to be called in kindergarten.
Suddenly, my palms started sweating and then she began to hopelessly stutter my name,
“Im-Immaculet Arch-liki, I mean, Achei” Here, I interrupted. My ears burned with
embarrassment and droplets of perspiration formed on my nose. “Did I say it right?” she
said with the same apologetic look on her face. Before I responded, the laughs that the
other kids in class had been holding back suddenly exploded, like a volatile3 vial of
nitroglycerin, into peals of laughter. One kid thought it was so funny his chubby face
started turning red and I could see a tear gradually making its way down his face. I found
myself wishing I could sink into the ground and never come back. I hated being the
laughing stock
