1420!

At my old school, my friends and I formed a fellowship. I was chosen to be Frodo. At my new school I'm called Lord of the Rings Girl. We have very few LotR fans here.

That is a misfortune indeed. Hope you find some light at the end of the barrow...

People in school just refer to me as 'Art kid' 'Goth Art kid...' I don't mind, since it is true in a sense. I don't mind about a LOTR nickname reference, since there is a substancial number of people who do enjoy Tolkien at my school. I am, if you were to refer to a sub-culture context, a Victorian Goth. ( Just can't have enough of Mr. Aleister Crowley and Mr. Poe!)

I better stop before I go into rant...

My real name translates to Sindarin as Hiriel, a name I use as my screen name most places (I didn't know it yet when I created my account here, though), and many of my newer friends call me Hiriel most of the time

At school, I've had a sort of sorority who really thinks it weird that I've bought all Tolkien's books everytime our monthly allowance from the mayor arrives... ...and my best friend [whom I've managed to make her read parts of the Sil if not the whole book] called me Morfindel, though I barely liked it. Another sister who I watched the FOTR with called me Lorien later, for a reason I'm still thinking about till now...

Then my dad found out about my new names, he began calling me Gollum, because of my obsession with sashimi... duh. Sashimi really isn't fish who's raw and wriggling...

A friend at Camp called me Frodo and I called her Sam because on a really tough hike up a hill (I'm borderline asthmatic, so I don't do hiking) she wouldn't leave me and wouldn't let me give up, even though I felt like lying down and dying.

Also, all my friends call me The Hobbit because I'm short. My friend Chandler (Nicknamed Chandish) made me his personal slave/servant, so I call him Mr. Chandish .

I have a friend named Autumn ( Seriously, it is her name.) who I call Galadriel, not only because she has freakishly long-golden hair, but she's full of herself entirely. That last bit is something always fun to poke at, and she is constantly trying to make my much shorter friends feel inferior by starring at them. I see a match! Plus, she always has us (my other friends and I. One of which is a giant...) attending her every need when we are her guests! But, she is rather loveable person, and unfortunately once you're in her trap of 'Innocence' your done...

I have a friend (okay a friends older sister) whose name acutally is Arwen. Their father was reading LOTR when he was younger and decided he wanted a girl with that name. Strangely enough, he never wanted to have boys and I'm not sure Elrond had any. (I could be wrong though.)

As for me, my name does not come from LOTR but a fantasy faery book in it that had the name 'Morai.' I liked it, and later earned the pename 'Folorn Melody.' Kinda lables me as a gothic Goldberry I guess.

I also have a friend who I refer to as 'Samwise', (who is a She.) She refers to me as "her-----" (nickname not included for security reasons.)
