What's up with nicknames? Why does everyone make up different names for me? Is my given name not good enough? Nicknames are kind of pet names, right? I think they should be reserved for only the very closest of friends, and even then used quite sparingly. Pet names shouldn't be replacing my real first name. If I didn't like my first name, I might encourage the instatement of a nickname for myself to be used at all times, or I would go change my name officially to something I liked better.
I like my name just the way it is. I like my first name and I just want to be called by my first name. If you have been calling me by a nickname and I seem to be okay with it, be warned. I'm really not. I may have just smiled and went along with it for some unknown reason or another. Probably because I am non-confrontational at times. Just a heads up, I really enjoy called Heather. Plain and simple. Nothing more, nothing less. I can live with a few plays off my last name though. I just dont want every person that happens to meet me casually while I'm under my pseudo name "h.b." to call me that as well. People I've met like 3 times have started to call me h.b. and I really hate it. Show some respect, you don't know me well enought to call me by that name. Just call me by my real name. Heather. Honestly, I'm not 5, I'm easy to please and best of all, it's not that hard either.
