do you like your real life name? (you don't have to share it, just yes or no is fine.)
would you change it if you could?
do you go by a nickname?

  • Meh mine is pretty unoriginal :p Its Ashley

    I get called Naomi and sunshine all the time tho xD Just from people who are around me. Sunshine has been my nickname for ever! And Naomi came from a constant misspelling of my last name
  • My name is Michelle but I sometimes go by Mimi. I personally really like my name, but I'm a little sad that I don't have a middle name :(

    Oh gosh. I hate my real name. My mom admits her mistake in naming me. I go by a nickname. From time to time I contemplate changing my legal name.
  • My name is Jocelyn. And I love my name! My nickname's are Mrs B or The Bunny :smooched:

    Katherine Michelle

    I do like it. Katherine is after my grandma Kathy and Michelle from my dad, Michael.

    I wouldn't change it, but I do go by a nickname; Kate. Was originally Katie, but I dropped the "I" pre-puberty.

    I DO like my name. I wouldn't change it. I didn't like it when I was in elementary school though because its more of a "gender neutral" name and I wanted a really girly name. But, now I like it because its uncommon and original. However, I would change the spelling.... don't know what my parents were thinking when they came up with the spelling.

    I do like my name. It is somewhat original, I don't find too many Noelles around but when I do I feel like we have to bond haha. However a lot of people call me Nicole on accident! Even people who have known me a long time let it slide...I really don't understand it. But its kind of funny.

    I like my name I guess. It's Leslie Ann, I just go by Leslie.
  • Yes I like my real name since it shows my ethnicity "Leilani" it's Hawaiian and means "Heavenly Flower". I go by Lani for short :)
  • I LOVE my name and my nick names...Nicole, Nikki or Nik!:happy:

    I dig my name... Samantha (go by Sam) I don't like my last name - stupid husband having a 1st name for a last. Now I'm technically white trash.

    No, I don't exactly like it. It's Ashley. I think other Ashley's can sympathize. I was one of dozens in my school. I'm usually called Ashley or Ash.
    My dad named me. My mom's idea was Paris.

    I have got to like it more as I got older, didn't like it much when I was younger. My actual name is Jemma (not spelt with a G!!) and it gets shortened to Jem by most people. My gf extends my name to Jemima...and that explains my screen name :smile:
