agree  clairee: podoba mi się, zwłaszcza ze wzgl. na kategorię zadanego pytania. Inne propozycje brzmią mi nieco zbyt literacko i "grzecznie", a to nie musi mówić kulturalna ciocia do bratanicy, ale równie dobrze koleżanka do koleżanki...

Miss Capricious


Explanation:
My friends and family sometimes call me Miss Capricious as a joke, which I shortened to Caprice. It's because I sometimes do things, or think, like this:
For e.g. 2.5 months ago, I woke up one morning and decided I needed a tiny diamond stud on my nose. I will probably wake up one morning a few months from now and decide I don't need it any more, no one really knows for sure. :D
