I actually WANTED one of my kids to have a nickname, but school intervened. My sweet little J.P. (he's 6) has been called J.P. since I was pregnant with him. His full name is Jason Patrick, but I've only ever called him that in times of 'distress' if you know what I mean. ;) Anyway, at school, both for PreK and K, his teachers REFUSE to call him or let him write his name as J.P. and it drives me insane! He is finally used to it, being called Jason at school and J.P. by everone else on the planet.


my 2nd(and last) daughter is named Cassandra. since the day she was born we have called her Sandra. when she started pre-k last year she told her teachers to call her Cassie. she chose to have a school name and a home name so now when one of her friend call and ask for cassie i know its someone from school and no one from the family. whats funny is when i go to her school(classroom) all the kids yell "cassie your moms here!" and i always look around for another mother!

Just be careful...

I know a guy - he is a tile layer where I work - and his name is Mike, Mike Hunt. Not bad on paper, but say it outloud, and it takes on a new life. Why he chose to work around a bunch of immature construction workers for the rest of his life, I'll never know, but it was his choice.

Basically, all I'm saying is act think like a third grader and do the Homer Simpson method of testing names...go through the alphabet changing the first letter as you go...Art, Cart, Dart, Eart, and so on.

Honestly, I think I'll mess up my future children with odd names; for a boy I want something gaelic like Amon (pronouced A-man with an Irish twang) or Edmund and maybe a made-up name for a girl, something like Narin. Either way, I have some time to think about it...
