do you like it when people shorten your name

for example: I would prefer it if people called me emily, that's my name.

but if people insist on em, I guess I'm okay with it... I'm not thrilled, but it's okay

I don’t really mind if people shorten them or nicknames either.

Aww that’s horrible. Sorry you had to go through that. Luckily I just either had nice or funny ones.

My name can't be shortened in any meaningful way. There are variations of it, some a letter or two shorter, others a letter or two longer, but those variations are also names unto themselves, some people actually have those variations as names, so they're not uncommon.

I don't mind. But if people prefer their names in full, that is fine. My own name is rather difficult to pronounce so I get called 'Annie'.

The idea is okay with me; but I always like to know which the owner of the name prefers; and use that choice (if I can remember ).

Doesn't matter what you call me, just don't call me late to dinner.
