Well my real name is Elizabeth, and it a really odd way that I got the name Jig.
Okay. In year six (in Australia that's the last year of primary school just incase yours is different of something) and I wrote my name up on the blackboard. At that time I liked to be 'Liz', but I don't any more. So I wrote 'Liz' up on the board in my funny looking squiggly writing. And it turned out sort of like this:
One boy thought it said Jig. I argued, but he wouldn't listen. The name stuck for the rest of year six. I still get called Jig in high school (we don't have middle school). I get called Jig more than I get called Elizabeth by my friends. So this year I am in year nine, so it's my third year in high school. And one of the girls in my year only just found out that my name was Elizabeth. It was pretty funny!
