[quote=Anonymous]We picked a name knowing that we would be using the nickname. Grandparents were onboard and use the nickname. For school, I have emailed the teacher and let them know that my child prefers the nickname. Once in daycare, there was a teacher who preferred using her full name. My daughter complained to me about it, so one day at pickup I explained that she prefers the nickname and could she please call my daughter that. The teacher was obliging and my daughter was happy. My daughter is now more vocal about telling others her nickname. For short activities, like an ice skating session that lasts a couple weeks, I do not bother to tell the teacher her nickname. My daughter knows on the first day just to give her full name that's on the roster and that the teacher will probably not be calling out the kids names anyways.[/quote]
