I got the nickname Spitfire for a reason - I burned inside to play volleyball.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was a volleyball player as a kid. I played volleyball all the time.
I played volleyball for the greater part of my life, since I was 11 or 12 years.
I've been very fortunate to dodge a nickname throughout my entire career. I've never had one.
Volleyball, I could be pretty good. After a few practices I could be that striker, or whatever they call it.
I've never given myself a nickname.
I was captain of the volleyball team and the basketball team, and I ran track.
I made the first Feist album in '98. So at that point, it was my nickname. It was as far as with my circle of friends, and just felt more accurate than two names.
I was nicknamed Skeeter in Little League because I was small and fast, like a mosquito flying across the outfield.
I actually had a nickname as a player myself. When I played high school football in Texas, strong safety, they called me Choo Choo because they said I hit like a train.
Volleyball was a lot of fun, but I knew it wasn't my sport.
