It'll get better OP I was forced to movevto Texas with my parents too but I'm sure you'll find great friends.

Just introduce yourself as lily!

Why do you have to explain your name. Most people would have shortened it to people they meet to Lily...unless you secretly like the attention?

I promise we aren't so bad! There are plenty of people with odd names here, too. My mom teaches in a public high school, and she knows a girl named Rainbow and a girl named Athena.

If she's going to school, teaches usually use your full name on the first day of class, as that's the way it appears in the system. Hopefully you can say something to the teachers before they introduce you. :P Also, I have a cousin who lives in Texas and it's actually quite nice.

You guys may think its easy, but teachers usually introduce students with their full name. So she'll be Lilypad right off the bat.

Texas is a great state. I think you'll like it here

just shorten it and say Lily instead. plus lilypad is a rad name

Thats a awesome name show it how lilly

I've never been to Texas and I really want to live there :D
