I'm not bothered. I think most of the time they fade, but when they dont it's of little consequence. They may sound less presidential, but they're not uncommon and most who hang on to them seem to remain functional adults.
My poor cousin just turned 18. He's Dan to everyone new he meets, and most of his friends, but he is Danny to his family. We try to stop, but it isn't working.
I think Rox's example is a good one for when it's not really okay.
