My real name is Crystal, but hardly anybody uses that. Even my parents have called me "Jake" since birth, so it's all good. Or Chris, which I'm not a big fan of although I do allow one ex to call me that since she's never called me anything else. Oh, and my mom does have a habit of embarrassing me in public by calling me "Chrissy-poo". *shudder*

Most folks usually just call me "dixie" and that seems to work best for me.

MrSunshine calls me Dixie Crystal Sugar, but since he's my bestest buddy he gets away with it. Heaven forbid anyone else call me that.

ugh...the new client at work insists on calling me Chris. It's driving me nutty, but despite reminding her of my actual name she says she likes Chris better. And that her "gaydar" went off upon meeting me because I remind her of her bunkmate in prison. And then she winked... *help*
