Does that make you MeBe?
Short names are stalkerazzi faves: LiLo, ScarJo, etc. But I think the couple monikers are the WORST! Bennifer, Brangelina, CRINGE!!!! Although, I dated a guy named Alistair and my friends figured out that our couple moniker would be "Cinistair" (say it outloud) which was fitting b/c dating him was just that indeed that BAD...
