>not all names have nicknames
I find the reverse of that quite interesting too, i.e., names that are almost always nicknamed or shortened. I don't think I've ever met a Benjamin who uses the full name!
eta: and yup, the poll format is a bit limiting. Maybe I'll draw up a questionnaire at some point.

True. I suppose that's why people who want to name their son Michael but not call him Mike worry about it and know they'll have to correct people!
But it can be done. My husband's younger brothers are Joshua and Daniel, never Josh and Dan.
