The Mercantile Library

The Mercantile Library | Cincinnati, Ohio (Library)

Hi Littens...it‘s been awhile... anyone up for a game of #litsyavatar (story/description of your profile pic) and #litsyhandle (Story/description of your Litsy name)??

I just updated my avatar tonight. I visited and got an after hours tour of the Mercantile Library. It is a beautiful library!

My handle: A mashup of my first and last name:
Mi(Chel)le (Leo)nard. Pronounced Shelly-O even though I hate the nickname Shelly.

Share yours!

Zoes_Human I'm a Michelle that ALSO hates the nickname Shelly! 4y

MicheleinPhilly @Zoes_Human SAME! I‘ve had people ask me if they can call me that and you would think they asked if they could rob my house. No, no, NO. 4y

Chelleo @Zoes_Human @MicheleinPhilly The only person who has a pass is my Brother-In-Law. I usually go by Chelle with family and friends but flinch when people see it in writing and pronounce it With the hard CH like cello. 4y

MissAimz_55 Hello! I had to go look st what my picture was. It‘s a picture of me with my niece on Christmas when she was only 2 weeks old. Now she is 2 years old! I should update it . My name is just aimee so my user name is MissAimz and then 55 is my favorite number. 💗 4y

Chelleo @MissAimz_55 Look at how little your niece was. So cute! I‘m one of those people that change avatars frequently but if your happy with yours, keep it! No judgment either. 4y

vivastory @MicheleinPhilly @Chelleo I was with my ex (a Michelle) for 10 years & not once was I tempted to call her Shelly. I just find it very strange. 4y

Chelleo @vivastory it is strange whenever people shorten someone‘s name without asking or being told. I also find that Michelle‘s who go by Shelly typically only go by Shelly and never use the formal version. But that‘s just my experience. 4y

Zoes_Human @MicheleinPhilly 😂 😂 😂

In my case, it's a matter of bad experiences. I've known only 2 people actually named Shelly and BOTH of them were awful humans. To the extent that if I meet another Shelly, I'm really going to have to work to give them a chance. (edited) 4y
