I have a two-part question for y'all.

1) What is your name?

2) What nicknames do you have that are somehow related to your name?

I'm Samantha, and I have four nicknames. the first two are obvious -- Sam and Sammy.
my third nickname is "Sammymantha"...my uncle started calling me that when I was a baby. it stuck. it's kind of cute, but I would murder anyone outside of my family who used it.
and finally, my mom used to call me "Miss Samantha" when I was in a bad mood when I hit my teenage years (which was quite often, hah) and it eventually got shortened to "Missantha". I actually love this one.

My name is Elizabeth and my parents wanted me to be Elizabeth, NOT Liz or Lizzy or Beth or anything. So I grew up totally never allowing anyone to call me those things. Instead my best friend called me Izzy or IzzyBeth, my dad calls me Elizamouse, my big sister calls me Lizard or LauraBeth (my first name is Laura), and my little siblings call me either Libba or Baba. Baba is actually my most commonly used nickname. My little brother recently started calling me Eebar for reasons known only to himself.

I kinda think Liz would have been better.
