Re: did you ever read ...
I am curious to see whether this will stick or not. I've seen it go both ways.

I went by Fanny (pronounced the French way, also I didn’t grow up in the anglosphere) as a tween/teen, though it’s a nickname I used in school exclusively to distinguish myself from the three other girls with my name). I dropped it later on, and never asked my parents or family to use it (they suggested it because apparently there’s a Francesca up my family tree who went by Fanny) though some of my friends from middle school plus a few people who know me through them still call me that.
