Well, for me, I don't want my nickname as my full name. I'm William, but most people call me Will. I like having a longer name for job interviews and being professional. However, it feels so formal when I'm with my friends! I also feel as if I'm in trouble at home, lol. I guess it really depends on the bearer's perspective. As for my parents, they call me Will since "Will-yum" can be a mouthful at times. Maybe that's the case for others. Besides, nicknames are fun!
