Or Alissa... which, in fanfics, is usually spelled Alyssa cause that y is so much kewler. But Melicia is unique.

The y can be a kewl word, however, sometimes it's taken too far. A friend of mine used to make the most outlandish names. A y would most certainly be in it!
Thanks. Sometimes I want to go back and change it, but that is just way too much work, LOL.

LOL I agree. We used to joke about what the teenybopper Mary-Sue spellings of our names would be. Mine was Joolee. Not much you can do with Julie LOL.

I'm one of ALYssa girls *blushes* But actually I dunno maybe its a regional thing, but I always thought Alyssa was a more common spelling than Alissa. Most Alyssa's I know spell it with a y. *shrugs*
Melicia is kind of cool....

LOL It could be; I have no idea. I think I "know" more Alyssas in fanfic than I do in real life. I can only think of one I know in real life, and I'm not even sure how she spells her name.
