Re: Nicknames vs Formal names
in reply to a message by Nifty_Name_Nerd
Generally, I'm for putting the name you intend to use on the birth certificate as the full name. I don't see the point of having a name you're not a big fan of, and don't really want to use, purely to get to another. However, with some names/nicknames I understand why that might not work. Those examples I'd definitely put as a full name, given how established they are anyway.
