I call
loads of people by their screen names when I talk to them. I'd say it's about a 50/50 split. Some people prefer one or the other and I have to train myself to use their real name. A few examples...
Levian - I always call him Lev.
Psychotic - I call him either Psy or Paul, I seem to alternate.
Shorty - Have always called her Sarah.
Lockharted (current username of Night Furry) - I called her Locky but she insisted I call her Tara so I spent about a week getting used to it and now I always call her Tara.
Shauna - It is a mystery.
I think I'd call you Shiny, Shiny.
