Tamara Ellis Smith: Hello. My name is Tamara Ellis Smith. My first name, Tamara, basically rhymes with "camera." My nickname is Tam, but not Tammy. In fact, I used to have a shirt that said "Tam" on the front, and "Not Tammy" on the back, because I really, really didn't want anyone to call me by that name. While it's very lovely, it's just not me.
