My name is Libba. My real name is Elizabeth. I absolutely love it. Everyone always comments on how cute of a nickname it is. My great grandfather first started calling me that because his sister's name was Elizabeth and they could never pronounce her name as children. That is why his siblings called her Libba. Now I am called Libba by everyone and love it!
