    For some reason I enjoy intentionally mangling people’s names to make them sound silly. If I were to use my name as an example, I’d probably turn it into “modsy” or “mobsy”. Haven’t run into anyone yet who’s told me to cut it out, so it’s kinda turned into a game to see how hard I can mangle a name and still be understandable.

    Edit: mosdy, mosby, mobdsy, moldy, moffy, mothy, mawshy, etc

      Same. I love coming up with those nicknames, often specifically to annoy the person. I haven’t done it recently, but that might just be because I haven’t gotten close enough with new people in a long time 😕
