babynamesI 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.

Date: 2009-08-19 01:16 am (UTC)I have always been called Lauren by my family and friends since I never really had a nickname I went by growing up or even now. I have had a few nicknames given to me when I was older though; when I was in college people started calling me Lara - and when my cousins were little they couldn't pronounce my name so they all called me Ren (a lot of them still do).
I couldn't pronounce my own name until I was six because I had a speech issue (I couldn't say my "L"s or "R"s (problem much?!) So I called myself "Wawhen" and sometimes my grandparents will good around and call me that.
