A nickname; an assumed name; an epithet
Even though Erin’s real name is Erin Hicks, I affectionately call her by her SOBRIQUET: Erin E. The reasoning: I mistakenly thought her last name started with an E, while it was just the first letter of her middle name, Elizabeth.
The name was wrong, but the SOBRIQUET carried on. Love you Erin E!
