do you, or anyone you know, go by a nickname that is completely different than your/their real name?

for example: my cousin is named Carl Timothy lastname, but he has always been called Zeke. in fact, i didn't know his name wasn't Zeke until like five or so years ago haha.

I know a Blaine David nn Zander. His sister was a toddler at the time and decided his name should be Tarzan, so the family humoured her and it stuck/evolved.

Also have a friend Janine who goes by Jenny.
