Help[Opinions] Re: Deborah
in reply to a message by Brightfield
I think it all depends on the person what fits... Only selective people get away with Debs (ok... 1 that I can think of and she's a closer friend)... some of my En.-speaking friends will occasionally shorten it to Deb, but I don't tend to get the Jpns. doing that as their syllabic language turns it into "Debu", which means "fat"... not the direction I want to go with my name.
After switching over to my full name (once I found out my real name) in the beginning of gr. 3 or so, I wouldn't even answer to Deb until some time in my later teens... I'm ok with it now though. It's just Debbie *does beach bimbo airhead bob reminiscent of late 80s/early 90s blond jokes* I'm not so fond of.
