[quote=Anonymous]My kid recently came home from school (K-2 level) and declared that he wants to go by a nickname, that he doesn't like his name because it's "too weird." It is from our home country so that makes it a bit more complicated because it is a very normal name where we are from. (E.g. his name is Aksel and he wants to be called "Ace.") I am not opposed to nicknames, but I don't like that he thinks his name is weird and that's why he wants to change it. Have you ever experienced your kid picking a new nickname and how did it go? Don't know if this is a forever thing or a temporary thing? Do you just call him Aksel at home and let him go by Ace with his friends? WWYD?[/quote]
