Good morning.
Today's question is, Do you or have you ever had a nickname? Who gave it to you?
I've had several. All the way through school I was called Flo. It started when my best friend and I were about 6 and we were making up rhymes for each other's names.
My name is Laura, so I was called Laura Flora, then Flower, and then this got shortened to Flo, which stuck for the next ten years or so.
About 5 years ago my Japanese teacher gave me the name Kitty. This is because the first part of my married name is Kita, which sounds a bit like Kitty, and because when I introduced myself to the class I said.
"My name is Laura. I love cats!"
Most of the other students know me as Kitty and they're always surprised to hear this isn't my real name.
Recently I've been given a new nickname. Now that I live in a little cottage in the middle of The Suicide Forest surrounded by all my cats my brother has started calling me The Blair Witch.
