What's in a name?

As I was leaving my house this morning for school, I heard several goodbyes from my roommates that were each followed by a different name. We have been known to be a nickname household, I think it is just part of freshman year at Texas A&M. Everyone loses their first name and then goes by their first initial followed by their last name or a shortened version of their last name.  It is strange and often results in unflattering names.  So in the spirit of procrastination, here are my beloved and always affectionate names.
