Amy Schumer wants you to know she’s no Long Island Lolita.

The Rockville Centre-raised comedy star, 36, who married celebrity chef Chris Fischer on Feb. 13, posted an Instagram Stories video Sunday in which she speaks with her father, Gordon Schumer. At one point, the topic turns to whether Amy Schumer is adopting her husband’s last name.

“Are you still Amy Schumer or are you Amy Fischer now?” Gordon Schumer asks, according to a transcription in multiple outlets.

“I’m not Amy Fischer!” his daughter replies, laughing. “Do you remember who Amy Fisher is? The Long Island Lolita,” referring to the infamous Merrick native with a slightly different last name who, as a 17-year-old on May 19, 1992, shot Mary Jo Buttafuoco, then wife of her 38-year-old lover, Massapequa auto mechanic Joey Buttafuoco.

“No, I’m keeping my last name,” Amy Schumer assured her father. “I’m keeping your last name.”

Fisher, whom the press dubbed the Long Island Lolita, pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and served 7 years at the Albion Correctional Facility in New York. She had been a senior at John F. Kennedy High School in Bellmore at the time of the shooting. Schumer graduated in 1999 from South Side High School in Rockville Centre.

Schumer, who ranked No. 5 on Forbes magazine’s 2017 list of highest-earning comedians, has not commented further on social media. Her most recent post, on her regular Instagram account Tuesday, was an alert letting her followers know she would take part in the March For Our Lives gun-safety rallies being held on March 24 throughout the globe.

Fischer, whom Schumer married in a small, unannounced ceremony last month in Malibu, California, became known in culinary circles as sous chef at Mario Batali’s restaurant Babbo in Manhattan, and went on to win a 2016 James Beard Award for “Beetlebung Farm Cookbook: A Year of Cooking on Martha’s Vineyard.” He and “Trainwreck” and “Snatched” star Schumer, whose new comedy “I Feel Pretty” is due out April 20, have been on an extended honeymoon, most recently in Milan and Venice.
