my mate is called Ferret
no one knows why though. not even him.

I get called by my surname by my old mates. is weird when new people call me it though.

I get that too
I find it a little odd, impersonal at times.

I don't mind it at all
I like my name and don't mind being called it.

is funny when some of my dunce mates used to phone up my parents house and say "hi, is (surname) there". they'd then get mocked by whichever family member answered the phone.

I like my surname too
And can see why folk would call me by it, but it still feels a little 'distant' at times.

My surname is not gay!
How very dare you! ;)

is it because he's mad for it?
or because he spends a lot of time down yorkshiremen's trousers?

I tend to imply the latter

If you ever want to upset me
IRL call me by my last name. Or even my full name

Full name's reserved for if you've been naughty.

I don't dislike my name
just had some bad experiences
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 14:59, Reply)

About 2 years ago
I realised I actually quite dislike people calling me the shortened version of my name, but all my friends and family still call me by it because after 20-odd years it'd be a bit weird to make a fuss..

When I met you
I was going to call you berk, then reconsidered because saying it out loud might be mean
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:03, Reply)

Haha, well
berk by name, berk by nature and all that. It would have been entirely fine!
(berk, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:05, Reply)

I can't remember what I called you instead
probably your full name
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:06, Reply)

I have met her
And unfortunately have forgotten her real name, because I can never remember names :( I r embarrassed.

Tut tut
hang your head in shame, mister - I remember yours! (or at least, I think I do...)

when I was growing up no one called me by a nickname other than my family, I tried to hard to get a nickname like Krissy or something but it didn't stick
now that I'm older people try to call me Kris and I fucking hate it
fuck off with that shit
( Lisette von Falcon, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:08, Reply)

I noticed you signed off a gaz with the full thing
so if we met I'd either have called you that, or berk I think
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:09, Reply)

don't know if you remember
the random b3tan who went to Sonisphere, posted on here before. Weaver I think. Turned out I met him (not knowing at the time)
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:11, Reply)

Weaver rings a bell
that's pretty random
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:12, Reply)

we shared a taxi to Stevenage
though less random given that I had recommended where he should camp to him, which was the camp next to mine
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:13, Reply)

that was slightly less random then

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:15, Reply)

don't judge my chance encounters dammit

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:16, Reply)

you said it first!

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 10 Aug 2010, 15:18, Reply)

I knew someone who was called by his surname.
reason was that there was another chap in the group with the same name, so the other chap gets call by his first name.
