you know what's funny. when someone's name is already short, but people still have to shorten it by like a syllable or half a syllable. like my supervisor's name is feliesha, but everyone calls her felie or feliesh.

perrin perrinOG 2004

Why don't theu just call her fel?

Yeah i don't get what the point of it is. My name is adam but a lot of people call me ad.

perrin perrinOG 2004

Who calls you that?

D
deathtognomesOG 2004

My whole family calls me that and a bunch of other people. I'm surprised you never heard me called that Don calls me that all the time. Some other nicknames i have had are Bowser, Phantom, Egg, Rusty, and Adman

perrin perrinOG 2004

Nope I don't remember anyone calling you any of those.

deathtognomesOG 2004

thats because thankfully i don't get called them anymore.

perrin perrinOG 2004

But you just said that Don and your family and other people still call you that? I'm confused.

deathtognomesOG 2004

I don't get called most of the ones i listed anymore but i still get called Ad a lot and a few people still call me adman

perrin perrinOG 2004

Yeah well I was just saying I don't remember hearing you get called that is all.

I have just the opposite problem. I have people trying to add to my name. They think it can't just be "todd". It's gotta be "toddward" or something. I forgot to add "toddward" as one of my nicknames...but I'm doing it now.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

jay79 jay79OG 2001

I call my friend Gina that too. (Or Genie, even though its the same amount of syllables)

perrin perrinOG 2004

Yeah but isn't there a story behind why you call her that? I thought there was.

jay79 jay79OG 2001

Nah, I think it just started one day, and became a habit...Usually me, Jackie and her family call her that

perrin perrinOG 2004

that's so when they see you they can say
Sup-g

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

yeah and they say "aint nuthin but a G thang"

perrin perrinOG 2004
