[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am getting published and am wondering about using the diminutive of my first name. I would mostly be doing this to differentiate myself from someone else who has the same name but mostly because the shortened version of my first name is what people call me 99% of the time. Question: is it unprofessional not to use a full first name? If you have been published, or if your name is listed in a masthead, for example, do you use the name people more often call you? Think "Michael" vs. "Mike." Thanks![/quote] OP here. Sorry, meant to say I would partly be doing this to differentiate myself, but mostly b/c it's what I'm called. Thanks![/quote]
