Unrelated nicknames
What do you guys think about people named a name (or several names), but going by a completly different nickname, either decided by parents or self-named.
Examples that I know;'Parent-named':
Gerardus Johannes, nn Cody
Gertrude Elizabeth, nn SamanthaSelf-named;
A lot of Asian people that choose a more 'English' nn.
Elisa Maria. nn Karen.So wdyt? Personally I think the parent-named nns are a little weird. Why not just name your kid a name you like?
Any other examples?
