I like being called Nisa (pronounce Knee-sah) Or Nis for short is fine too (pronounce Neice)..
Some of my family call me Niecy.. So either 3 is fine especially Nisa or Nis.0 -
Kathy... IIIIICCCCCKKKK!
My full name is Katherine, but absolutely no one calls me that unless it is the bank or something. I get either Kate or Katie, which I am a-ok with! I've also had random (my boss, my sister-in-law, my brother's best friend) people call me Katelyn.
Anything is fine... just DO NOT CALL ME KATHY!0 -
My name is Candace, and I've been called "Candy" forever so I don't care about that one. The ones I don't like are "Can", "Cace (like 'case')", "Canda", "Cand", "C", and "Ace". I definitely prefer "Candace", but I accept "Candy" and even use it a lot myself now.0

My name is Elizabeth, which I really like. People call me Liz, Lizzy, Beth, Eliza, Izzy... etc. I've given up on trying to stop them.0
-
My wife is fine with Patricia, Tricia, or Trish, but do not call her Pat or Patty.0

I hate my name (Alyssa) and I've never had a nickname that caught on, so I prefer to be a pronoun lol0
-
I'm probably "that" person who people hate b/c I shorten everyone's name and give them nicknames in like two seconds if I feel we have that or are going to develop a playful, friendly like relationship. I do ask people if they care about the nickname, and if they don't have a problem I use it.
my name is Artice<
(pronounced kinda like Art+Is, soft t, haha), most people just call me Art. My mom hates just "Art" b/c she's like that's a boy's name, haha0 -
Jennifer makes me feel like my mom is yelling at me. I used to go by Jen and only certain people called me Jennie but now I go by Jennie. The problem with that is I get "Jeanie" " Janie" and all sorts of other names.
I will say though that I AM particular on how Jennie is spelled. It's IE not Y. The misspelling bugs me.0 -
I hate being called Dori - my name is Dorianne0
-
My name is Maryann. One word, not two. Most people who are Mary Anns are really Mary's with Ann as a middle name. Not me. My first name is Maryann. My mother's first name is Mary. So, when people call me Mary I'm programmed not to respond because, clearly, they are talking to my mother. They get really annoyed when I ignore them. :laugh:0
-
My name is Samantha and I haate being called Sam :P. I think being called Sammy is even worse though, makes me feel like I'm 12 years old haha0
-
My name is Melissa. People that have known me since school and my whole family call my Missy (cannot stand this name but I tolerate it) I have been called lissa, Mel, Miss M,(those are okay) and the one that really bothers me Martha. For some reason Melissa sounds like Martha when I answer the phone. LOL!0

Before losing weight my wife called me Bubba, hated that!0 -
my name is Lisa , i hate being called Lee Lee ( my sister is the main one who calls me that)
my maiden name (legal name as i have been to lazy to change it is, Cornutt and yes there have been jokes and it doesn't help that there is a snack called cornuts ( that was my moms married name / not my dads name) it also caused an issue when i went to get my marriege lic
moms maiden name - Boyd
dads name = Savell
my maidem name Cornutt
the lady said hun you need to put your moms maiden name, yup I did, she said well then you have your dads name wrong.. nope i didn't ..hahaha
that poor woman was confused

....and you think I'm happy with Jerome? ha! it's Jerry, always been, always gonna be.....except I still get a lot of Jer and jerski, and smack those who use the variations (jer bear is not funny)....the only person who ever got away with Jerome was the director of our criminal justice program because he was 6'3 275 and was teaching our self defense class....when in his first class I corrected him on my name, he'd say alright I'm going to demonstrate a new move, come up here Jerome.....0

My name is Holly, and Holl is horrible. The worst of all- Hollyollyolly! sneer* Also, my middle name is Anne, so people like to call me Hollyanna. ew.0

I hated my name so much that I had it legally changed to my nickname at 18. Everyone calls me Lori except my dad and my ex husband. They call me by my birth name Lorellei. When others hear it they want to use it and are corrected immediately.0
-
"Pap" or "papa" is annoying. i prefer "papaver" or "poppies"0
-
my name is devin... i really dislike being called dev... i tried to go by de for a while but it never stuck except an aunt that calls me that.
i really hate getting mail that says mr. on it. and when i was a waitress i got a lot of customers that said it was a boys name and i said clearly not. most devin's i know are girls. boys often spell it devon or ive seen deven and devyn for either gender.
I think mail should leave off the title cuz no name is gender specific anymore and you never know. for example jessica simpson just had a girl named maxwell, not a normal girls name. i dont love the name even for a boy but they chose if for a relative.0 -
I absolutely hate being called Sal, SalPal, Sal Gal, Mustang Sally, Ride Sally Ride.. There's a whole slew of names I get.. my parents really screwed up naming me Sally.0
-
My name is Stephanie.
Most people call me Stephanie. One of my brothers & all of my nieces/nephews call me Finnie. One of my Aunts has called me Stephy all my life, another Aunt calls me Stephanie Anne. A few people call me Steph...
I don't mind any of them except for Stephanie Anne.. it annoys me.0 -
My name is Mary-Jo. I hate it when people just say 'Mary'. The hyphen's there for a reason, ****heads!0
-
My name is Maureen and I don't answer to anything else. The favourite alternative is 'Mo' which I really hate and won't answer to. The only thing worse is when people put 'big' in front of it.
Yes, that's right, some people actually think I want to be spoken/referred to as "Big Mo"! :explode:
(maybe I could persuade them to refer to me as "significantly smaller Mo" now?)0 -
My name is Rebecca and I have always been called Becky which I don't mind but I really really dislike Becca. I let ppl call me that once but the 2nd time they are in a for a fight. I had a boss once try to guess my middle name which I told her started with a B and ended with a T and from then on out she called me Rebecca Brat. LOL My middle name is Bridget.0
-
Real name is Constance, don't like that or people calling my Con. I like being called Connie. My husband calls me his beautiful bride or his sexy bride and we have been married for 10 years.0
-
My name is Catherine.... and in general... I want to punch people that call me Cathy.0
-
I'm Angela, Angel, Angie, Ang, Aaaaaaang-eh (like the Rolling Stones song), or just A. My employees like to call me Chief. My older female friends call me sweetie or darlin'. I don't mind any of these. People usually do this in an affectionate way, so I think it's kind of nice.0
-
My name is Anna. Not Ana or Ann or Annie. Also, I have an aunt who calls me Anna Banana. I thought it was just her, but I worked in a nursing home where there was a 98 year old woman and they called her Anna Banana. I hate it! Makes me feel like a child. I am 33 years old. Just call me Anna.0
