Default Other names that would suit you?

So far I've been told I could be an:

Amanda
Sam(Samantha)

Those of course aren't my real name. But that's what others have said about me.

What about you? What names have you been told you look like? Or other names that you think would suit you?

My mother used to call me Mary Anne when I was little, she's always said that suits me, but I don't really see it.

Maddy, i think Angel would be a good name for you :3 Its cute, yet also has a hint of bad-ass drifter teen with a troubled past who will cut you if you get too up in her grill. Total you.

Lucy, perhaps? My dad's been calling me that as a petname ever since I can remember.... I think it might suit me, maybe.

I was told once that my name should be Butterscotch.
I have no idea why they thought that, but I liked it.

If I wasn't Chaz, I would have been either Alex, Johnny, or Leroy.... I'm happy with Chaz though xD

I honestly have no idea. Everyone calls me by my nickname because my name is just too common. That, and I've been told it doesn't suit me at all...

Kirby. It's suitably androgynous, and a few people that I originally got to know online have called me by that name when I've met up with them in person (it's part of a username I've used for 7 years on a different forum).

Haha, I do know that if my parents had had another girl, they were going to name her "Sarah Jane".

I've also always liked the name Samantha. I enjoy the idea of being nicknamed "Sam", too. =P

i don't know what name suits me, no one has ever told me, i kinda feel like there should be one though.

my parents almost used my middle name Charles cause my dad's name is Paul, but i was like 4 and wanted to keep my first name or something. Too bad though, it'd be interesting to use a different name.

Yeah, because you'd know what it'd be like to use a different name What a paradox... xD

My middle name is Angeline, so I could probably go by Angel without too much of a stretch!

I just had an epiphany that I basically have the same thing in a way. Although a bit less extreme than Paul/Paco, Joe/Joey are like pretty much completely different. Wow.*blonde moment*
