I will find it one day, by "accident."

I prefer PhQnix, don't mind my real name though
It's true they'd have to be crazy! Found again?
I like your real name-but I'm used to PhQnix now!
I'm going to call you Q. What's up Q?

Nothing much, what's up with you?
As long as you call me something Robyn <- I prefer your real name, much shorter 
Haha Q reminds me of Star Trek with Picard!
Ah I don't like my real name so much-lends itself to jokes so easily! I will come up with a good name for you in due course, but PhQnix will probably stick-or phqnix once the having to do capitals annoys me!

No, no, no, no, no, no. Always get the capitals right
What jokes can you get out of "Robyn?" There might be something in "Robyn red-breast" though...
Yep there's Robyn red-breast, Robyn Hood, Robyn Hoodie, Where's Batman?, How's Baskin, Robyns? and a whole host of quotes from The Blossom by Blake.
People just quote E.T. at me. Or call me "Smelliot," Every year someone new thinks up "Smelliot" and every time they think it is the height of wit.
Oh I get that with red-breast! How do they all know about E.T? I think Smelliot is quite cute though-but I spose I don't have to live with being called it.

The main character in E.T. is Elliott and that's the most high-profile use of my name. No one intends Smelliot to be sweet unfortunately 
And I just added another count to you "People who come up with Robyn Red-Breast list," didn't I?
Ah I was guessing that it had got around that you were scared by it, rather than the more obvious link! And Smelliot makes you like Sarah Chalke in Scrubs-can only be a good thing!
And yes, yes you have! Better than quoting the whole of that Blake poem at me in an epic, spoken word, style.

Actually that's annoying as well - "Elliot, isn't that a girls name?"
And no one can ever spell my name, but apart from all that I really like it.

But in all honesty, who NOT in your sad little class would even know to do that?
I know the feeling "Robyn? Isn't that a boys name?" The teacher at my Spanish course read out my name and said, "That's odd. Only one boy's here and he's answered, so why is there another boy on my list?"
A boy in my history class spells Elliot like you do-and everyone gives me an i not a y.

Oh my sad little class is big enough!

Different amounts of Ts and Ls I should think.
