No Story, No Nickname

What’s the story behind your nickname?

My name has three letters and two syllables. I don’t have a nickname. The closest I can get to a nickname is Ame. (Pronounced like same or name.) My mom used to call me this, and a handful of other people.

My mom named me Amy for simplicity reasons, at least that’s what she told me. It was a choice between Amy and Michelle, and Amy would be easier to learn how to spell.

Did I just write a poem?
