Yup. You name a child what you plan to call him/her, since full names are required and used in most places outside family (at school for example the child will be call by their full name, including any possible middle names). And since we don't usually use middle names there are many people with short names (I'm friends with Ria, Dea, Iva, Mia, Ela, Ema, Lea, Ivo, Mio, Pero, Niko, Din, Dan...). So if you don't like Aleksandar, but love Sasha, you''d have to use Sasha, otherwise he'd be called Aleksandar all the time.

Hope you get what I mean, I'm tired and rambling a bit.
