As in . . . we see all these lovely ladies names written in blogland, but are there nicknames, special pronunciations, etc.? <BR/><BR/>Since my sister's name is Heather and apparently it's super duper hard to distinguish between two H names Heather and Heidi . . . I have always answered to both. I even worked for years with a Heather and I would get the same thing at work. People would just interchange our names and call me Heidi or Heather, depending on the mood or day I guess. Now there's a Heather at church and it's the same thing. I get called Heather or Heidi . . . depending on the day.<BR/><BR/>So for those that happen to meet me at Blogapalooza and accidentally call me Heather . . . I will most likely respond to it and not even notice you just called me the wrong name. The easiest way to tell us apart . . . Heather is the VERY pretty and funny one.heidiramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17622845004432537035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534899535780442639.post-69194399845257751122008-04-23T17:22:00.000-07:002008-04-23T17:22:00.000-07:00HA!

So I will always refer to you and Jessica. I kind of know how ya feel though. People always shorten my name from Tristan to Tris or Trist. Which doesn't bother me that much...just sometimes I guess. I am not picky about it though. However my husband knows I prefer to be called Tristan and would never shorten my name. :)Tristanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00815688535821965917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534899535780442639.post-91081584212328960542008-04-23T16:39:00.000-07:002008-04-23T16:39:00.000-07:00You know?

I'm pretty sure it didn't seem like we just met though so I'm going to be okay about it. I don't know about YOU. But me? Yeah. I'm fine. <BR/><BR/>I am NOT big on being called "Holl" unless it's by John or really good friends. But it really only bothered me a TON when I used to work and there was this sales guy who, every time he needed something would say, "Hey, Holl?" And it drove me crazy. He was notorious for shortening everyone's name. <BR/>I have a question: I have a friend who's husband's name is Ryan and I always call him Rhino even to his face. I realize it's not the nicest term, but I think everyone calls him Rhino. So now I'm curious. Does YOUR Ryan get called Rhino?Hollyweenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02965955385923756263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534899535780442639.post-8334901293077020162008-04-23T15:04:00.000-07:002008-04-23T15:04:00.000-07:00I got 'em all right.My in-laws called my son Daney...I got 'em all right.<BR/>My in-laws called my son Daney when he was first born.

I love the name Cameron and use it half the time myself. Those are my only issues.<BR/>However, Cameron's cousin calls me Cametta and as I always wanted a less cutesy name, I like that just great.
