Re: Nicknames as names?
I don't like it. It's true that most Samuel end up as Sam and Thomas as Tom, but still it's better IMHO to be Samuel or Thomas in formal situations. This said, I like Max on its own. And I can tollerate those kind of nns that work on adults as well, like Alex, Kate, Nick and so forth. What I find really ridiculous is saddling for life someone with a very childish nickname like Maddie or Timmy.
