Hey,
My boyfriend just called me Rach, and for some reason I really don't like being called only Rach.. the names Rachael!
Anyone else dislike having their named shortened, or even prefer their shortened name to their full name (feel like you're in trouble if you're called by your full name?)
What nicknames or pet names do you love or hate?

My name is Anthony, and I hate to be called Tony, especially by someone who barely knows me. Not sure why it bothers me, but it does.0

I actually like my name shortened because like you said....lol I feel like I'm in trouble when someone says Jasmine (immediate replays of childhood) xD my mom almost always called me Jazz or Jazzie unless I was in deep s*** haha. :laugh:0

I don't think anyone would like being called Dumb!
Haha yes, I love that my name is related to the ewe, and my twin sister, Leigh, means meadow.. sheep in a meadow haha.
Unintentional and funny to me.0 -
My name is Janet, much much much prefer Jan :happy:0

My name is Stephen.

I prefer Steph, especially from family and friends.0

My name is Christine...I love Chrissie but really hate when people call me Chris.0

My name is Amanda.... not Mandy. Never, ever, ever Mandy.
That's just my preference. I had a boss once try to call me Mandy, and we got that sorted out in about the first 3 minutes of my employment. He'd do it just to rib me on occasion, but I'd never want that to be a nickname.0 -
My wife calls me "Husband" I F'n hate that!0
-
My name is Jessica, I get called Jessie, Jess, and sometimes Jennifer. lol. I don't mind any of it but Jessie and Jess is what I got called as a kid so kinda feels weird sometimes to be called that as an adult.0
-
My name is Kandie and people always assume it's short for Kandice and call me that.. I can't stand it!0
-
I love my shortened name...I encourage everyone to call me Q.0

LOL I can tell where/when people know me from by what they call me.
A whole lot of people don't know my real name even IRL. They just call me Hoss.0 -
My name is Marie but I get called, Mary or Maria and for some reason being called Maria just irritates me to no end.0
-
Does anyone get weird reactions to their name?
My surname is Bowser so I've heard quite a lot of Mario Bros. jokes, and particularly since my partners parents have a dog called Mario, which his little brother found to be a hilarious coincidence.
On the other hand having the surname Bowser did get me a job at a game store (and my knowledge of gaming of course).0
