I like my first name
although all of my family and most of my friends call me by a diminutive of it, which I hate, and have hated since I was about 15...but if people have called you something for all that time you can't suddenly make a fuss about it or you look weird. My surname is incredibly unusual and has a fair bit of history behind it. Sadly 90% of people pronounce it wrong and pretty much everyone at high school did so for the lolz.

I like the way your name only has 4 letters and you still shorten it.

Actually I never shorten it.
It's only other people who shorten my name.
