Re: Do you introduce your children by their full name or shortened name?

If she's not old enough to say which she prefers, and she's usually called Becky unless she's in trouble, you should introduce her as Becky. In a situation where her full (first and last) name is going to be noted, like for signing up for school or something, you should say "This is Rebecca, we call her Becky."
