[Opinions] Re: Christopher
in reply to a message by Kukla
No, you didn't come off as angry at all. I just decided to relate my own personal experience. Oh, you bringing up Matthew reminds me that I've never known a Matthew who wasn't called Matt! I don't know if it's sheer coincidence or where I live or what, but I just haven't known many people who go by full names. You bringing up Elizabeth reminds me that I have known one Elizabeth who was called Elizabeth, though.

I know several Elizabeths who refuse to be shortened.
I think it happens a lot when there are a lot of people with the same name in one group or class that they need to go by their full names. though I have known plenty that just went by their full names. I'm just saying it's possible(:
