People wouldn't call a young Peter 'Pete' nowadays, would they? Because I love Peter but HATE Pete.

What names do you love but really dislike a nickname for it? Would you hesitate to use them because of this?

I love James but I hate Jim. I still want to use the name though. I figure if my kid wants to be called Jim it's not the end of the world, and I don't have to call him that anyway.

Same for me. I love Jamie and Jem/Jemmy though, so I could avoid Jim.

This. But I also love Jamie.
