[quote=Anonymous]Is a shortened version of the full name really considered a nickname? I always thought a nickname was more like using a totally unrelated name, like calling a kid Red when his name was Peter. In any case, my son has a full name, but we use a shortened version. And then there are spin-offs- nicknames to the nickname- I can think of two that he's called regularly. We almost never call him by his full name, but his old daycare did, so many of his friends from there refer to him by his full name. Everyone else calls him either the shortened version, or the two spin off nicknames.[/quote]
