How comfortable are you with your name?

I was sitting here just now, reading the community, as I do about once a week now. I got to thinking about how do other people feel about their own names. See, I was thinking that because it took me a long, long time to feel comfortable with my own name. My first name is Amy and my middle name is Kay: Amy Kay. People say it's a lovely name, but I find it way too short for my liking. I would love to change the spelling to Amie, but my parents both hate that spelling. So what do you think of your own name? Like it? Hate it? Love it? Would/have change it someday?

I go back and forth on my name. I like my first name (Krysta) for myself, but I don't think it's something I would ever like on a little kid (even if it weren't my name). My middle name, Jo, bugs me because I feel like it makes me sound like a hick. :P But at the same time I love it because my middle name is after my favorite aunt, Betsy Jo. :)
