> [@So what's the story behind your gamer handle?](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/so-whats-the-story-behind-your-gamer-handle/19051/181): > > “Lyya” was the name of the first character I ever RP’d. IRL, people who know me call me “Ly,” which is pronounced “Lee” (as in the end of “Emily,” which is my real name). Because I’m so creative, I just tacked on a few letters to “Ly” to make my character. So in my head, “Lyya” is pronounced the same as “Leah,” though many people who read it pronounce it more like a Bostonian might say “Liar.” I’m cool with both. It’s all good with me! --- _[View the full topic](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/shhhhhh-don-t-tell-lyya/33478)._
