HelpRe: When nicknames go bad
in reply to a message by Trina
I hate the nn. Kitty for Katrina. it drives me crazy. there is a girl about nine, in the group I teach at the library, and her mother insists that I call her Kitty. Dilly reminds me of a dill pickle-thats why I dislike the name Dylan all together.
I think its alright to give your kids silly nns. but they should be used in private, and not something they are born with. Some people name their children just so they can have a odd nn.
I personally hate when anyone but my mom and siblings call me "Stace". It drives me insane when teachers or people who read my name off a sheet call me Stace in stead of stacey. But thats a personal choice.
At school my nn. is StSt. And my friend amanda's is May. And Courtney's is CoCo. But they are just fun, private nns. My cousins on the other hand have all started school with the nns. Abi, Emi and Thea (Abigayle, Emily and Theadora). That annoys me to no end. But its a personal choice I suppose.
