Here's definitely hoping for good things from your granmda; and it's very true, you just gotta work with what happens when it happens. Otherwise your brain melts.
And just remember, Oreos are about 50 calories per cookie, so don't overdo it or you'll feel bad about it later. Especially now that I've told you things you probably didn't want to know.
My Oma does that with me too, except she goes through my brothers, or they'll get called my name, or we have to answer to our mom and uncle's names. -.-'
Heh, I feel your pain. I've honestly been called Rachel, Elliot, Alan, Elenore and Peggy (amongst others) in real life... none of which are my real name. It's pretty effing incredible I don't rip arms out or type in all angry-uppercase letters on a regular basis.
Someone once pronounced my name as Ryo-soo-key, they had it in for them after that.
Ugh its 1am, oh well. HOLY HELL, One Piece is up to chapter 499. I used to read it in the monthly Shonen Jump but stopped right after they entered their Naruto hype. I need to catch up because I am behind (WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY behind).
Mm. I've had the misfortune of having people mispronounce my name as well, that is the feminine version of it, which is kind of stupid because there is a spelling difference between the male and femal version.

I always had you pegged as "Nezz-rai-ah".

Wow o_O
The only time I get that is with my grandma. Sometimes she'll cycle through my uncle's and dad's names before she gets to mine ^^

I've accepted my fate, so don't worry about it. It's not like my real-life name isn't butchered all the time, I'm used to it.
