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.

So i was talking to my boss yesterday about baby names. She told me she's pregnant, but i don't know if she's screwing with me or not... she does that sometimes. anyway, her favorite name for a boy is Tiberius. She would call him Tiber for short. I don't like the n/n so much, but Tiberius isn't that bad... her favorite girl names are Isadora, Penelope (but NOT Penny for a n/n) and Jezebel. I told her that if she named her daughter Jezebel, there were bound to be "whore jokes" for the rest of the poor childs life. WDYT?

Just curious ;o) My husband doesn't like any of the guy names I like and only one of the girl names I like, so I wanted to see what more agreeable people thought, lol

I was reading a magazine yesterday and in it were three girls names I had never heard before (they weren't related or anything):

Mabby (not sure whether this is short for anything)
Luendy
Stanislassia

Thoughts?
I didn't like any of those.

Hey, so, yeah... this is addictive =]

Vote on my name combos, and let me know if there are other combos you like, if you feel up to it, of course, haha.

I don't plan on having a child for at least another 2 years, but I do have a daughter, Cressa May Enri, if that makes a difference with sibset related issues =]



Thanks!

Here are the children of the most recent lot of parents with literacy problems:

( No actually some of them aren't THAT bad. )

ALSO - In the birthdays section I just noticed this name:

Mariclare

Eh? Has anyone seen this name before? It isn't intended to be new or trendy, because this person was turning 30!

Nicknames.

One of the comments in another post made me curious about this, so I made a poll. I'd appreciate it if you'd all fill it out - it's only two questions long. :)

What do you think about the name Laramie with the nickname Remy or Ramie?

I kinda like it..

Joachim

[tokossel.livejournal.com]

I think this might be my new favourite boy name and was wondering what everyone in this community thought of: Joachim.

I heard it a lot in Norway, where I visited this summer, and apparently it is quite common there. It's really unusual in U.K. as far as I know; I haven't met any one here named that anyway. I don't know about the U.S.

It is pronounced like 'Yoa-chim', or maybe more like 'Wa-kim'. Babynamer tells me that it has hebrew origins and means "Founded by God."  It's used in in German, English, French and Polish. I also like the variants Joaquin (Spanish) and Joaquim (Portuguese). And I quite like the nickname Joe, too.

Thoughts? Good? Bad? Do you like any of the variants more?

Thanks!

I had a customer today with the cutest baby girl in a stroller - but her name: Brady. Is this a unisex name now? I dislike it on a boy because I can't imagine an adult Brady, but on a girl it seems even worse.

WDYT?
