Re: Uncommon nicknames
Eh, I still wouldn't do it. Again, if I liked an uncommon nickname but didn't much care for the "real" name, I would just use the nickname. I wouldn't care what other people thought.

I'm not trying to convince anyone to do it, really. I was just saying that judging someone else for doing it and assuming they chose to to seem "well-read" feels weird - like calling an astronomer showy for speaking intelligently about stars

I don't share the opinion that someone who does that is showing off how well-read they are. I didn't really go off Rox Star's original post, I just jumped off yours, and then it got a little confusing. Sorry about that.
