HelpRe: How to get people to call your child by nickname
in reply to a message by Mikah
Begin as you mean to go on you use the nickname yourself and inform everyone of it, introduce her to everyone as (using one of your examples) Catherine nicknamed Cricket :)
When my daughter Catherine was born her cousins started to call her Cathy which I dislike, I told them to call her Cate or Catie and they switched to that straight away everyone else soon followed .
Of corse my daughter being who she is, has a strong sence of self and at the age of four declared she wanted to be known as Catherine something I was actually pleased about as I prefer her full name
