What do you prefer to be called on the site? - Page 3

Andrea · 09-03-2010, 06:53 AM

Except when Rene says "Yes, Dear!", I am seldom called anything but Andrea.

Well there are the people that can't remember my name and call me anything that begins and ends with an A.

Many years ago, there were two people who called me Andi (not Andy. After all, I am a girl <insert curtsy smiley here>) but that really doesn't seem to fit as a rule.

Guess I just present as Andrea and that is fine with me. I love my name.

Andrea (of course)

ravfem · 09-03-2010, 08:28 AM

i'm rav, ravvie (ravvie poo to Pink), rev to the typonese

rhonda is my given name.
i don't really care what you call me, as long as it's not mean.
i'm easy like that

betenoire · 09-03-2010, 08:32 AM

Not relevant to this site, but I wanted to put out there that I have a coworker who calls me "Brandy-Girl" and it makes me want to slash her tires.

cane · 09-03-2010, 10:05 AM

Don't really care as long as it's not female oriented or mean. But how about Cane...?

To some of us female and women are different.

I said that was my personal preference, and that for myself do not want to be referred that way and I don't like the term. I never heard of female identified or male identified until I came online. I also said I would use it for those who do like it.

Ana
A
Bitch/Whore

It comes off as judgmental and intolerant and that is not the kind of space we are trying to create here.

I said that is how it feels to me. I also said I would refer to others how they want to be called. The topic of the thread is how do you like to be called on the site. People constantly refer to me as female identified and I am clarifying that I would prefer people didn't refer that way to me. I don't consider it to be an umbrella term that I fall under.

Arwen · 09-03-2010, 11:55 AM

I've decided that y'all can call me a few other things.

Never late for dinner

A couple of people have the priviledge of calling me pookie, kitten, or muffin.

He calls me Bella, Princess, BabyGirl, and a few other pet names.

I too really don't care what people call me as long as its not mean. My real name is Sarah, but it's rarely used online. I'm kinda fond of Rain and Eeyore and am not really sure why when I was choosing online names I didn't have something with Eeyore in it. But its all good...

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

A story about who calls me what.

Many years ago, during the 'courtship' phase (if you want to call it that....it was like bees to pollen), my now ex wife (16 years) spontaneously called me by my family nick name. I had never told her that and she had not at this point met my bio-family. How the hell did she do that....laughin....many folks have come close, but no one outside the bio-family ever nailed it before or after her.

dang it potty............you just reminded me I should have done the 'popcorn' in a thread instead of replying with words........

Bit · 09-03-2010, 08:22 PM

What I prefer to be called is Cath or Cathie, but I've used Bit as a screen name for more than a dozen years now, so I understand when people call me Bit. At one point I actually answered to it--had a partner who preferred using it instead of Cathie--but these days I feel more comfortable with Cath.
