[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of my kids have a shortened version of their name and it hasn't confused them. I was a little irritated when I realized if you provide a nickname on the school papers, your child will be known exclusively by that nickname in school. If I would have known that, I wouldn't have provided the nickname. [/quote] Do your kids go by their shortened name exclusively or do they flip flop between their full and shortened names? I ask because I have an Andrew who really only goes by Drew. I put Andrew on registration forms, but note that we call him Drew. He responds to Andrew, but is only called that by doctors who see it as his official name. It'd be weird for him to be called Andrew at school since almost no one calls him that.[/quote]
