Re: What is wrong with nicknames?
in reply to a message by Ozma
I love nick names. It bugs me sometimes that I don't have a name with a natural nickname. My friends call me Shiv or Shev sometimes - and it freaks me out when casual acquaintances do it. My ex-boss used to call me Siobhánín and Siobhání sometimes which I found a bit odd.My mother is very anti-nick names and she tried to chose names for myself and my brothers that had no nicknames - didn't work of course - we all had nick names from our friends.Sometimes I don't like a particular obvious nickname and I can understand people saying I really like Katherine but don't Katie (for example).
