Re: Johnny
in reply to a message by queenv
I have no problem with an adult being called Johnny. I do, however, prefer that John is used for the birth certificate.
My rule of thumb: It's best to use the formal name on the legal documents (birth and marriage certificates, job applications, school certificates, even health records, etc.) and let nns like Johnny or Jack or Doodlebug or whatever evolve on their own.
