I preferred to get called Lise which is short for my full name that I despise and want to legally change. Simply, it's Lisa without the "a" but idiots just cannot say it. I get "Alise", "Lee", "Liz", "Lice", "Leash".
.....YOU'RE ALL ****ING STUPID PEOPLE!

My name is Richard. You want to call me Rich? Cool. Richie? No Problem. Rick? Ok, sure. Ricardo? Hey, no problem. "Ree-Shard?" (My teacher used to call me this claiming it was the French pronunciation or something) uh, ok. But you f***ing call me "Dick" and I'm going to kick the f***ing shit out of you. I hate that nickname and I really wish I could go back in time to England and hunt down and beat the living shit out of the in-bred dumb f*** Limey Cockney stupid rhyming asshole who came up with that as a nickname for Richard. Amen, a-freakin'-men. Also, Robert. It has no connection to my Richard that I know of but I seem to called it once a week for some reason.

While some of the missus's family had trouble with my name at first it would be really hard to f*** up my name since it only has 3 letters.
Though on another note I did get annoyed with some people thought it would be amusing to link to me pictures of the lost prophet's frontman since I happen to have the same first name as he has.

My name is Tracey, but just about everyone calls me Trace. I don't really hate any version of my name. Some ways people have spelled it are questionable. I did a survey and the guy spelled my name "Traisi"... Perhaps he meant to make it Traìsí to make it more exotic. As you can tell, I have no idea how a tilde is supposed to work

His survey skills weren't even good either. He didn't ask if I came to see WCW or the NWO!

My name is Amaury (pronounced ah-mau-ree). Most of my friends call me Maury like the TV host, which I'm fine with. However, for some inane reason, some people mistake my name for Maurice and ever since then, I cringe whenever I think about it. I'm glad I lost contact with those idiots after middle school.

I hate being called Jonathan. My name is John, not Jonathan.
Also I hate it when people spell it Jon.

I hate it when people call me James and automatically assume that's my actual name. It's Jamie you idiots, and no Jamie is not 'short' for James. That doesn't even make sense. Jamie isn't short for James? I learned something today.

Jamie isn't short for James? I learned something today. No it isn't because they have the same amount of letters. Sure Jamie comes from James but that used to be gender based.

My name is Reyan (pronounced Ray-ahn). With strangers, all I get is butchered versions of my name, so I've come to embrace and/or accept it. Having lived in both Pakistan and America, I have heard it all in terms of both nicknames and mispronunciations--Ryan, Rehan, Rey/Ray, Rey Rey, Rain, Ree-ann, Ray Allen, etc.--so not much bothers me in terms of pronunciations. That said, I despise when people say, "Reyan... so, like the fabric?" (No) "Reyan... so, like the element?" (No) "Reyan... is your sister Nylon?" (No) etc. Overall, though, I am pretty thick-skinned.

My name is Lachlan the "Lach" part is pronounced t so that it rhymes with rock (Hence my screen name). There was a regular subsitute teacher at my high school who always pronounced my name as Latch-lan no matter how many times I corrected her she always got it wrong. Eventually, after about the 6th time she got it wrong I lost it at her & stood up & walked to the front of the classroom with all my books etc & shouted at her something to the effect of "I have told you at least 6 times how to properly say my name, I have taken the time to learn your name & until you bother to listen & pronounce my name correctly I refuse to sit in a classroom with you."
I got summoned to the deputy principal's office (a situation I was not unfamiliar with). I then explained what happened, the deputy just laughed at me & told me that my objection was fair enough & understandable but I should have raised it in a more polite way. I told him thanks but I'm still not going to stay in a classroom until she gets it right. It was nearly the end of the school year & when we went back the next year she was gone.
I also have an Aunt who, after 30 years spells my name Laughlin. Pisses me off every damn time.

People who spell Brian with a Y! They are all heathens.... all of them... *glares at Bryan Danielson* Also people who mispronounce my last name... it's spelled EXACTLY how it's pronounced but far too many people pronounce the E like a U and pronounce it Skully.
