    Are you offended if people use your name?

    There are alot of people whos' usernames are not their real names.

    For those people --- do you like it or hate it when people use your real name when talking to you or about you on PT?

    I love it when people use my real name. It's like we are more than a forum that we could feel comfortable enough to call eachother by our real names.
    I've been BOO'd!

    I like it when people call me Britt, but I don't care if people call me FLS, Floppsy, etc. It's funny that you made this thread, b/c on birthday threads and things like that, I always get scared to use people's real names in case they'll get mad at me. Talk about paranoid.

    Everyone calls me Slick - my family, my friends and my co-workers. In fact if you were ask for Vickie at my work number the receptionist would have to stop and think......

    I love the name Slick. Always have, always will.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I really like it when someone uses my real name, although no one knows it Hehe, so for everyone's info, my name is Dayna (pronounced Dana, I'm sure everyone knows how to pronounce it, but you would have no clue how many times it's been miss pronounced, although it's obvious;Day-na ).

    I really don't care what I'm called. I didn't vote because my vote would have been it doesn't matter.

    It doesnt really matter to me. People can call me GoldenRetriever, GoldenRetrLuver, GRL, Golden, Retriever, lol whatever! or Julie. I think I like Julie better though.

    It doesn't make much difference to me. prima and Liana are less formal to me but when people call me Liana, I feel more comfortable with them. As been said, more like friends than just a forum.

    Sometimes people call me Chloe, but that's quite all right! I'd like if people used my name, but...it's okay.

    I didn't vote because well it doesn't really matter to me. I'll answer to Crikit or Criks or Tracy or Trace or all kinds of stuff....just never call me Theresa or Tray, I'm not a Theresa nor am I a device used to serve food.

    Why would I be offended?? It's my name!
    Actually, I haven't been called Lindsey very much, but that doesn't bother me. Although, I do think it's funny when people call me Ruby

    Thanks for the signature & avatar kfamr
