    1. Zed, a nickname my father infrequently uses, annoys me.
    2. Zachary, my full name, is used by my grandmother. She's my grandmother; she can call me whatever the bloody hell she wishes. When my Aunt calls me Zachary, I just want to punch her in the face.
    3. Zacharoo, an endearment employed by my friend Sarah, is unacceptable uttered from another's lips.
    4. Zacharias, a nickname which annoys me, has been adopted by multiple friends. It annoys me less than others, but its explosive and sudden popularity lead me to believe that its use is a conspiracy against me devised by my friends.
    5. Zach, the name by which I am most commonly referred, annoys the crap out of me. I hate my name; the above variations are, as a result, infuriating.
    6. Raphael, my middle name, while preferable to all of the above, is more trouble than it's worth. Everyone mispronounces it. More likely, they pronounce it correctly and the Greek side of the family bastardized the pronunciation when they named my great, great uncle Raphael. Nobody really knows or uses it outside my family (and it's usually only uttered as sort of an expletive when my parents are angry and shout my full name).

    I believe I would have been more content if my parents had named me Quinn.

    You are definitely jussie now.

    I hope you did better by it than this guy that went to my school for a few weeks in sixth grade;o The name kinda left a sour taste in my mouth since then, and I find it kinda weird that it would be preferable to anything :O But I guess it depends on the context in which you get used to it.

    I'm not a big fan of being called Rob or Robby or well Robert for that matter. although I'd take Robert over the other two.

    Only words, like stupid. But I don't take it too seriously now.

    My name is an expression. I hate when people hear my name, chuckle, then say it as if I had never heard it before.

    I also hate it when people call me my birth name. (They only do it to get on my nerves) I hate it. It sounds really crappy. And no, it's not Allison, and no I will not tell you what it is.

    You can't really abbreviate my name. Cause Kaycee goes to... kc.... which is the same. So nothing has really ever bugged me
    I would call you Special Kay, but somebody else already has that nickname.

    Dan.
    Worst abbreviation of the name Daniel ever.
    Danny or gtfo.
    Calling me by my last name has grown on me though and I prefer it to my actual name. :kaoyatta:

    Haha, yes, I get that too. But my brother's name is Justin, so I get "Just Kyle". It seems I'm nobody special, I'm...just Kyle.

    It doesn't bother me much, though. Actually there is no name that people call me that bothers me anymore. I've heard it all! :old:
    My mom does that. She's been doing it with my brother and I since he was born. Recently she's started doing it with me and my dad AND my brother and sometimes my cat. >_> "Da- er -Gu- er - Rhody!"
    Yep, my mom gets all three of us siblings confused. I'm usually He-Kristian (my brother's name is Henrik), my brother is Kri-Henrik and my little sister, who's name is Tippe, is Kri-Tippe. It's really annoying sometimes, but I'll live.

    I also hate it when people mispronounce my name. Like adding a "sh" sound when there's no "sh" spellings in my name, and I have to tell them repeatedly how to pronounce it.

    My last name... that's interesting. It's Bazzell. BAZZ-LL. Like Bazzell from Austin Powers. Razzle dazzle Bazzell. Somehow people always pronounce it like buh-zell or basil. It makes me mad.

    I have a Final Fantasy character's name in my name!
