    Linda

    I am called several different names by different people :blush:

    My family's name for me to this date

    Freckles ~ by all my childhood friends because I was a total Freckle face

    Red ~ by most of my adult friends

    And Legs ~ by a lot of my Guy friends :blush:

    Do you ever wonder if Adolf Hitler had a nickname?

    How different would the world be today if he went by: "Skipper" ?

    Megan.
    Nerdface: a past student of mine gave me this nickname, because I wear glasses and I made a comment about how excited I was for one of our class fieldtrips to the planetarium once (um, space is really cool okay?)
    I also used this as my nickname for my Social Work Groups class.

    Rootie Tootie: I was a pretty gassy and colicky baby I guess. Such an embarrassing nickname- thanks Mom & Dad. Really hoping they don't pull this one out for important life events... :s

    MaeMae: my little brother couldn't say my full name right when he was really young, so he would call me 'maemae'. I despised it. Now I guess it's actually sorta, kinda cute.

    Hiesel - I couldn't say Rs when I was a kid, so I called myself Hiesel. Not sure how I came up with that.
