[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] ...psst: this is why you shouldn't have named him Christopher. If you've lived in the US for a long time, you would know that our culture is crazy for nicknames. It's a way to show affection and intimacy. Everyone calls you Elizabeth but I'm your sister so I call you Lizzie, that kind of thing.[/quote] No, it's not the PP's fault that the PP's son's teacher insists on calling the PP's son a nickname the PP's son doesn't want to be called. I have a brother, raised in the US, whose name is the equivalent of Christopher. Somehow throughout most of his life, most people have managed to remember to call him [the equivalent of] Christopher, rather than [the equivalent of] Chris.[/quote]
