Don't call me that!

Superrhi

My names Rhianna i dont mind it shortend to Rhi or Ran but i cant stand it when people say RhiRhi.
I tend to get a lot of 'Rihanna' jokes like at one point my nick name was umbrella. but now its more 'whats my name' i dont really mind them too much, its just when people get a bit ott about it.
My last names funny aswell, because its a characters name on the tv show Red Dwarf. so i get a lot of people comment on it.

beccaguinness

my name's Rebecca, you can call me Rebecca, Becky, Bec, Bex but i am NOT a Becca! lol x

opal24

My name is Christine - not Chris, Chrissie or any variation of those. I have four children and gave them multi-syllable names to go with a one syllable last name. Nicholas, Patrick, Timothy and Emily. They call themselves Nik, Pat, Tim and Em.......... can't win really!

Laura_Suzie

My nickname is Suzie and I'm okay with my family calling me that. I guess I just hate it when people think my name is Lauren or Laurie.

Lolli1986

My name is Lauren and I haaaaate being called Lozza. lmao. sound silly, but it's a typical aussie sort of nickname.

Darren - Dazza
Sharon - Shazza
Warren - Wozza
Lauren - Lozza

Hate it. I also dislike being called Lorry unless dad is telling one of the dogs to 'go to Laurie'...something about the way dad says it in that context is nice, haha. My real nickname actually is Lolli (usually boyfriends love this one), or Lon to siblings. All my siblings nicknames take that form

Lauren - Lon
Jenny - Jon
Jeffrey - Joff
...
then there's poor Kelsey, who we find it hilarious to call Kols. hahaha!

kirstand

i'm kirsty...my good friends sometimes call me kirst, which is ok with me...but some get my name totally wrong (un-intentionally) and call me kirtsy!!!! also my neighbour of 10years still calls me kristy or even kirsten some of the time...

mfp_junkie

My first name is Paul, which is hard to shorten, but the middle name I was born with was John. Used to get called PJ, which I hated so much, I had my middle name legally removed as soon as I graduated from college. Literally spent my first paycheque changing my name, hated it that much.

AmandaPandah

I hate being called Amy.

I'm usually called Amanda or Ritz though. (My last name is Ritzman, haha) Ritz is pretty cool!

deadgirl81

My names Emma, so its kind of short enough as it is - don't really like it shortened, but the only people I'll accept it from are my parents or family members - my other thalf just calls me Emma Woo, Emsa Wemsa, Touble, Shorty!!

The other names I can't stand are hun,babe etc

giggles7706

My full name is Amerette. It is a mouth full and I have only been called that when I've been in trouble when I was younger. Everyone just calls me Ami.

gammybear

My name is Brenda and friends used to call me Bree- that was fine, now that I am a grandmother everyone calls me gammy even my boyfriend, but when my dad calls me that it's a little strange-lol.Now I have three granddaughters and when I am in a playful mood I call them Lucy, Mable and Gracie, which is nowhere near Katherine, Jewels or Krystal.But when anyone gets in trouble it's first and middle name.

dreamsdisarmed

My name is just three letters and two syllables (Moa, Swedish name...) so shortening it is pretty much impossible. In sixth grade some people tried calling me "Mo", but that is just so ridiculously ugly that it never stuck. Besides, any nickname that's less than two syllables sounds really strange in Swedish, so if nicknames are made, they're usually the first syllable of a name plus -a, -is, -an or -e.

rnctipton

Sooo...my name is Corinne (pronounced Coreen) and once (only once) someone tried calling me Coco...No Way! I always get called (Corin) and even Connie. Hate it! I've learned to live with the incorrect pronounciation since other Corinne's are pronounced Corin, but Connie?? Really? Can't you read?

Cuddlebug12

I prefer my name shortened... I think being called Pamela is too grown up for me and I think Im in trouble

JenAiMarres

Don't call me Jennifer...it's not my name.

Ravenesque_

I like to be called Ark.

No other variant acceptable.

jcnuebel

My parents hated the idea of people shortening our names so called their kids Mary, Keith & Jill.
Difficult to shorten them you would think??
Dad used to call us, in order, Daisy, Cloth-ears & Jillikins!!

I'm a Jillikins too!!! I love it, it reminds me of my grandparents. My daughter is Kate, I call her Katiekins!

skylark94

My name is Susan, but I actually prefer Sue. Susan is an ugly name.

My son's name is Daniel, and I would never think of calling him Dan or Danny, but I call my daughter, Lillian, Lily. I have no idea why I chose to use one name over another.

deaddivya

I'm called Divya, there isn't really a short form of it. Some people call me Deedee, but that's just ridiculous, it's not even close to my name.

cowgirlashlee

People call me Ash all the time, but unless you're a close friend or family member, it's ASHLEE, not ASH! I'm not the stuff that falls off of your nasty cigarette or the stuff that attaches to your hotdog over the campfire. I get called Crash too, but that's more funny than irritating (there's an inside joke with it).

I don't like pet names from my boyfriend, either, and he knows it. We both avoid using them other than beautiful or handsome.

mikey1976

you can call me mike,mikey,mickey, but i hate being called michael it makes me feel like i'm in major trouble

SexyCook

I use to hate "Stephie" sound so fat to me...But one of my Bestie...she would call me that only...Then as time went on...most people call me that and sounds so personal and I love it...Most of my MFPers call me that...I them....Family!

Nick Names- Stephie, Steph, Step, Stackn, Black Jillian, SexyCizzle, Babes, Boo...most were given Here!!:laugh: :laugh:

thatblueyedchic

For some reason, no one uses my full name. It's always Laurnie or Louie. When I hear my full name, I feel like I'm in trouble!

itgeekwoman

My name is Lisa.. easy right??? Don't bother calling me Lis (Lease), cause I'm not responding!

Ravenesque_

My names Rhianna i dont mind it shortend to Rhi or Ran but i cant stand it when people say RhiRhi.

My last names funny aswell, because its a characters name on the tv show Red Dwarf. so i get a lot of people comment on it.

I adore red dwarf!

Love a surname connected to the show, It'd give me an excuse to sing the themetune obscenely loudly everytime someone commented on it!

ickybella

In my life, hardly anyone has ever called me by my real name (Isabella). Everyone calls me Bee. When I was younger, my mom called me Bean and people would call me by their personal nickname for my middle name (Kimberlyn) so I got Kimbo, Kimmy, Kimbo-beanie, even Punky Brewster and KC at different points. I might be offended if someone called me Isabella. :laugh: Oh, and my mom now calls me either Bean, Bo, Beanie, or Bobe.

Shanel0916

My name is Candice and I hate when people who really don't know me call me Candy ( which was my child hood nickname). I also hate when people don't bother asking and they spell my name with an A (Candace) :mad: instead of an I (Candice).

InnerFatGirl

I LOVE it when people shorten my name or give me nicknames. I regard it as affectionate, and it makes me feel special. As long as it's not derogatory, I'm game!

susannamarie

I don't mind most nicknames but I really hate being called Sue. Don't know why. Sus is okay.

Captain_Mal

Being called "Freckles" makes me feel like a 5 year old.

Being called "Red" grinds my gears slightly.


Most others are fine.
