And I desperately hate the "colon" pronounciation. I often think that Colin Powell lets his name be pronounced like that because he got tired of always correcting people on the correct pronounciation. And I do like Cole but really becuase it doesn't have that much in comon with Colin I guess it's really out of the question.
But a nickname from the middle name is a nice idea so if I were to use Colin Laurence the nickname would be Laurie (my name and my grandfather Laurence's nn) or perhaps Loren. I really don't like Doug as a nn for Douglas so if I was to use Colin Douglas there deffinately wouldn't be any nicknames from the MN then.

Thanks for your comments!
