HelpWell, I love it... ;) it's my name!! Some advice
in reply to a message by Tieliebirds
I hated my name when I was one of so many in my school classes. After college though, I started appreciating the fact that it has a history from Greek mythology, Orlando Furioso, etc. It seems that less people are using the most popular names now, so even the top names on the popularity list will be shared among less people than in the 70's when I was born. If you like, it, use it, Melissa is fairly unpopular now among newborns.
No one ever called me Missy, because my parents made it a point to use my full name. (I hate Missy too, it sounds like prissy and I have known too many cats with this name LOL). I like and have been called:
Mel
Meli
Lis
Lissa
I also love Mitzi or Mischa as possible nn's for me- I think I would like either of these best ;) HTH!!
