What do you prefer to be called on the site?

[dixie]

Just about anything works for me, from my screen name to my real name to "hey you". Pet names or nicknames are good too, unless they just sound downright goofy or offensive.

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.

[MsTinkerbelly]

Here I'm mostly called Tink, or occasionally Cindy by those that actually know me...at least to my face. LOL

My Spouse and Sister call me Cin (as did my Mom when she was alive), and my Mom used to call me Cindyrella Pumpernickel

Rarely am I ever called Cynthia, which is my name

[theoddz]

I go by, and everyone usually calls me "Theo", which is my legal and preferred name, amongst friends and family. I also get called "Adam" (my first name) with official stuff, including my union/work responsibilities/connections. That's okay, too, because I answer to both.

Occasionally, I get called "Mr. <surname>", but when that happens, I usually look around for my father.

~Theo~

[miss entycing]

it's usually Entycing, if we're interacting for the first time,
but after that, it's Deanna, which most folks call me-
cept Wolfy and a few others who still call me Ms E from way back in the day...
my mama calls me Dee, Damon calls me kitten,
and I roll with any of the above- I'm easy like that!

[dark_crystal]

lotsa people on the site call me Dark, Crystal, or DC. My scene name is jenny pigtails, which sometimes gets shortened to "pigtails." Plain ole Jenny also works. Or even Jennifer. But not Jennifer LYNNE (!) b/c that means you're my mom and i'm about to be grounded or something

[Apocalipstic]

I go by Jen, Jenny, Apoc, A, Mommie, Aunt Jenny, JP and AuntieJen.

If I know you I am fine with sweetie, darlin' and all that, since I live in the South, but please try to somehow refrain from calling me a Southern Belle, I hate that.

Please do not use my last name on line. I am fine with Miss______ in person, but not on here. On the dash site someone used my entire name, I do prefer at least a drop of annonymity.

I will try to remember to call those of you who do not like your screenname by the name you prefer, but I can be a space cadet, so please do not feel slighted if I forget.

[Canela]

Shug
Lil Shug
Shuggita

I prefer to use your screen name unless you tell me otherwise and ask that you do the same for me.

I too, like a bit of anonymity, but if we get to know each other become friends, then I will let you know my real name so you can use either.
If we don't really know each other--Shug works just fine.

any or all of the above

What about brat?

*grinz*

I'm okay with Gemme, Gemmie, Gemmelicious, Gemmekins, Gem, or Kat.

If you know the name that was written on my birth certificate, good for you. It means that either I trusted you at one point or you got very lucky/nosy. No matter how you came to be knowledgeable about it, don't use it. One "person" used my full given name on the other site once.

I. Was. NOT. Amused.

I don't mind Southern sweetisms like darlin' but please be respectful. Only one butch gets to call me baby or babygirl. My Austin sisters can do it, but not the rest of yous.

[Lynn]

I go by my name, which is Lynn, really and truly. Some people call me Lynnie, which is OK, but not really how I see myself.

Don't call me "dear" or any other sugary endearment unless you mean it. Used as a sarcastic preface to a criticism or reprimand, it will not win you any points.

I started using my own name when I realized how uncomfortable I was, trying to engage with anyone on a hopefully meaningful level, using an alias. Also, I've learned that privacy is an illusion on the internet. The people I try to avoid always find me anyway, so I figure, fuck it.

What about Pink Fondant?

Oh yesssssss! Any reference to Fondant is loved, and Pink Chuckie Thank you for reminding me.

~I'm not fond of being called Jane, as that's what my Mom used to call me. And only Mr. Moon calls me Miss Jane. It's a 'thing' with us.

~I loathe my first name and even in jest, I just will not like it.

~For those Southern nicknames.....It depends on who is using them, but as a rule, I don't care for "Dear" or "Sweetie". They remind me of my former mother-in-law, who thought I was neither 'dear' OR 'sweet' & used them with dripping sarcasm............bless her heart.

~I enjoy being called "baby" or "girl" by the right one......"Honey" or "Darlin"? Again....depends on the user.

~And I find "Mujer" to be rather hot....but again...coming out of the correct mouth.

~Edited to add: ALso very hot: a boi sayin' "Yes Ma'am"..........oh hellz yeah..........

Randomly....

I agree, "Dear" sounds patronizing...I quite hate it!

Mujer is indeed hot!

and Yes Ma'am? love it!

speaking of this: Jennifer LYNNE (!) get your heinie out from in front of the computer and TCB!!! You have a date in three hours and fifty-one minutes!

[Toughy]

T or Toughy works for me.

Isa calls me by my given name because........well..........because she can..........laughin

I actually don't really care about the given name part. It's funny, for the most, part people relate to me differently if they use my given name or if they use T/Toughy.

Oh please. A Toughy by any other name would smell just as much like popcorn.

It actually feels weird to me to hear anyone call me Stephanie outside of work and older family members. I've been called Arwen as a nickname since high school...and since that was my freshman year...that was a few years ago. LOL

lol at my "stepdown" I thanked (insert real name) and until she actually came up and got the award no one knew who I was talking about...hahahahaha. Yes, because I can.

[WolfyOne]

Here on the Planet, I suppose any name that catches my attention works
I've had people use my entire screen name, Wolfy, W1 (fishinabaggie started that *smiles*)
There are a few that know me and use the initial of my first name
I really won't get pissed online for what you call me,
but you better have a good running start if it's really nasty
should I ever meet you in person
And most know, it takes a lot to make me angry

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*
