| As in your name..do you like it shortened or do you hate it shortened? My name is Zara so get Zee, by my friends..although all my family still call me Zara and my OH always calls me 'babe' to the point that Oliver now calls me babe I hate Oliver being called Ollie, at first I wasn't too fussed and I used to refer to him as Ollie...although never called him Ollie, always Oliver. My friends little boy Is called Oliver and he's an Ollie, so thats how we call them. |

| People like to lengthen my name to Kimberley which does my head in as it's not my name and I hate it! A couple of annoying people call me Kimmy which I also hate (apart from when my dad does it) and I also get Bill sometimes (as in Kim-Billy) still not my name! x |

| Im nicola to my family and old school friends. From about 16 I decided I prefered Nicki but it has only stuck with people who I wasnt close to before then. So Stuart and his family call me Nicki, my family call me Nicola or Nic as a pet name, and my friends are 50/50 depending how long they have known me. In work im nicki. I prefer it shortened, though understand my mum wanting to give me my correct title when she peed at me lol. Usually its 'Nicola Jane!' in a gasp in of breath type way when I shock her |

| I'm generally Pen or Penny anything formal I'm Penelope (which I hate). My son calls Frenelope or luv. My bestest friend calls my dog, grey or sweepy as we're sooty and sweep, she was smart and quiet and I was a bit thick and very noisy. My Christmas and birthday cards are addressed to Dog. She never calls me Pen and often refers to my kids as my pups xx |

| I'm only called my full name by companies, doctors etc or if I'm naughty everywhere else I'm Lita. most people can't even pronounce my full name so it's so much easier lol |

| I've always been Tammy. My Mum calls me Tamara but most people can't pronounce it (its ta-myra) so it annoys me. One of my sisters calls me Myra. My inlaws insist on calling me Tam which I hate, probably because Mum always refused to let me be called that when I was little as she hated it. Mind you occasionally one of my friends calls me that and it doesn't bother me so it may just be that I hate my inlaws!
I always introduce myself as Tammy |

| I was always Debbie/Deby at school/college/Uni but when I started working full time I reverted to using Deborah for more formal situations as I think Deby sounds a bit childish Most people shorten my name to Deb/Debs now which is fine. I NEVER use Deby now since I got married as I think 'Deby Dunbar' sounds like some sort of porno name and Deborah Dunbar is marginally better . Paul calls me either Jennifer or Lesley for reasons I still don't fully understand but compared to what I call him I can't complain My dad has always called me Chloe - again no idea why other than that my Grandad used to call my Aunty (dad's sister) it and he does the same. xx |
